All together now: A toolkit for co-production with young people for use by Wolverhampton service providers, commissioners and schools – Anne Rathbone, Sunita Pallan-Jhalli, Hansa Clay, Raymond Codner, Tara Bourne, Samantha Gregory, Francesca Turner and Emerson Morris
Welcome to our toolkit for co-production. Lots of different people have contributed their ideas and experiences to it. We think that this co-production process has made it richer, more interesting and relevant. We hope you agree.
The toolkit has been led by Sunita Pallan-Jhalli, HeadStart Wolverhampton Senior HeadStart Young People Engagement Coordinator, and the HeadStart Young People’s Engagement (HYPE) team. Emerson Morris, one of the HYPE team apprentices, took the photos. The HeadStart Wolverhampton Ambassadors and many other young people involved in their co-production, have also contributed their own views about what good co-production is, to bring the value of co-production to life.
Anne Rathbone from Boingboing and the University of Brighton’s Centre of Resilience for Social Justice has made sure that the toolkit is in line with the theory and evidence around co-production with young people for resilience, mental health and wellbeing. Some of the ideas and materials from our co-production resources have been used in this guide and so if you know our work, you may find some bits familiar.
