Sharing experiences of co-production and co-creation is vital for building a better future for people who draw on care and support. We came together with others from across Europe at @ESNsocial's European Social Services Conference in Antwerp to share our learning across borders!

Great to talk digital technology, health & care when @JenniferPearl16 attended @thekingsfund conference. Interesting insight into NHS app, virtual wards, AI and @wesstreeting's innovation plans. #CoProduction with people who draw on care and support is key to this working well.

Let's talk about acronyms. ISF, SDS, ASC, SEN, PWLE, QAF... the list goes on. These acronyms fill social care, but they often exclude people. Clear language builds trust, understanding, and inclusivity. Let's challenge their use and embrace more human language #LanguageMatters
