Leading the way in Co-Production across the Trust

It is important that the people we support at the Aldingbourne Trust take part in activities across the Trust and work together to improve the support we provide for them.   
​
We recently looked into changing the way we do risk assessments to ensure they are accessible for the people we support.  To help us do this, we set up a group and invited staff and people we support to participate working together in co-production. 

Having discussed what we all felt was important to include, we now have a risk assessment for the people we support which has been designed to ensure they are able to lead in the risk assessment process and design/agree the measures they need to reduce the risk. The risk assessment is also colour coded in Red, amber and green to provide a visual regarding the level of risk.
