the product or service is design, taking a co-design approach at every stage.

•It is important to have a senior Sponsor to facilitate discussions and enable dialogue internally and with partners to begin.
•Involving people early on in the design process is vital – people need to own and feel part of change to create lasting impact.
•Building community relationships takes time and trust needs to be built
•Everyone has a story to tell and vital knowledge to bring in designing and redesigning public services.
•Part of this approach to is share learning and build up skills to build a culture grounded in service design principles within staff at LCCG.
•Further and sustained engagement internally and with partners and stakeholders will be needed to reinforce a person centred culture.
