9. What is co-production? “Collaboration of staff and service users effectively working together to achieve not only better service, but service user’s goals too” “Co-production promotes equal partnership between service workers and those intended to benefit from their services” Short video on co-production & it’s benefits: Squares & Blobs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egav5xjb-lg

25. “Returning to work has changed my life considerably. It has been the single most significant part of my recovery.” • I no longer feel like a second rate citizen• I have an identity that is more than my diagnosis• I feel valued for who and what I can contribute to society• I have a regular income• I look forward to getting up in the morning• I work through my depressions instead of wallowing on the sofa in self pity• I have felt confident in making my own decisions about my medication• I have friends/associates with common interests• I am prepared to try new activities• I have stopped having panic attacks• I have hope.”(Nicola Oliver, Mental Health Today, 2011)

28. LEAPs in Co-production Experts by Experience: Cherie Cargill, Sophie Green, Lisa West Expert by training: Chris Berry and Isabel Rous Northants Personality Disorder Hub NHFT

29. Northants Personality Disorder Hub • We are a county-wide tertiary service consisting of Clinical Psychologists, Occupational Therapists and Nurses • Our team aims to: • promote understanding and hope regarding the treatability of personality disorder • enhance the capabilities of staff in general services, and increase access to evidence based and psychologically-informed interventions • provide a Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) programme that involves weekly attendance at 1:1 and group sessions for approximately 18-months, and work in partnership with other AMH services to provide Structured Clinical Management (SCM) and Understanding and Managing Emotions (U&ME) Groups. • We also offer consultation and training and lead on a number of pathway developments for people with personality disorder across the Trust.

30. Lived Experience Advisory Panel (LEAP) WHAT: • Group of staff and service users working together to : • Develop recovery-oriented services, and inspire hope and optimism about the diagnosis • Challenge stigma and promote understanding of Personality Disorder (aiming for cultural change in services and the world!) HOW: • Co-produce and deliver training • Co-produce leaflets and educational materials (https://youtu.be/9AzosE-huvQ) • Share recovery stories and promote recovery-oriented practise across services • Co-deliver orientation sessions within the Dialectical Behaviour Therapy programme • Routinely review I Want Great Care (IWGC) feedback and co-develop solutions (e.g. clearer and faster access to services is an important outcome) • Co-develop and deliver an 8-week education and skills training course for carers/supporters

31. Achievements So Far… • Changes to the Hub have been implemented based on LEAP feedback (e.g. extended ending/discharge phase within DBT, provision of other treatment groups to promote access for people across a stepped-care pathway) • A variety of resources have been developed on Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), treatment options, and guidance for carers • Treatment programme modules start with a co-delivered session to promote hope, clarify expectations, and promote openness/honesty about the “lived experience” of attending DBT • 2 1-day co-produced Personality Disorder Awareness courses have been delivered • Delivered a co-produced session to the Oxford Doctoral Course in Clinical Psychology and received excellent feedback

32. Achievements • LEAP members are involved in broader trust-wide projects. 1 LEAP member is employed within NHFT • Collaboration with another trust has led to us developing a Carer Consultant/Peer Trainer role • We continue to adapt to new roles and relationships (co-production and collaboration takes a few leaps of faith/risks, good listening skills, and an understanding that we are all learning as we go) • Insights from Experts by Experience (EBEs) continue to regularly inform service developments

33. DBT Orientation Session Feedback What part of the session was liked the most and why? “Honesty, confidence and positivity of the speaker, good examples of practical skills used. Calmness and respect throughout this group” “Hearing someone’s positive outcomes from DBT, it was inspirational to know that someone can change their behaviour” “Sophie was very measured in her delivery and sensitive to the feelings of people in the room. Using the ‘Nanny McPhee’ analogy was something the group really identified with in preparing for ending (i.e. when you need me but don’t want me I will be here. When you want me but don’t need me I will go)” “Felt much more at ease about ending DBT now that I’ve seen Cherie cope so well after leaving” “Seeing you (the therapists) agree and take something from what she said”

34. 1-day Co-produced Training Evaluation *ratings based on two courses delivered

35. Co-produced Training Feedback • “the expert experience was incredibly valuable and really opened my eyes to the importance of stigma and discussing diagnosis” • “I feel all NHS staff should attend this training and it should be a full day mandatory training since I feel stigma still exists among health professionals” • “I am going away with a far greater understanding of EUPD and shall recommend this to my colleagues” • “Having service user involvement has massively helped my learning and has inspired me. The training exceeded my expectations” • “Really great training, valued service user opinions. I feel more accepting and positive of my own diagnosis, thank-you” • “Really interesting and eye-opening to think about how I can helpfully respond when working with people who have a diagnosis of EUPD” • “ I will take back to my practice, confidence and will not be so anxious”

36. Benefits • Increasing motivation and hope for both staff and service users (sharing stories, enhancing credibility in our approach, and confidence in how we take things forward) • Teaching and supporting each other is a two way process • Gives EBEs a voice and a purpose (and new experiences and capabilities) • Being involved highlights how far we have come in our own recovery

37. Challenges • “Can feel like the blind leading the blind” or finding the map after completing the journey • Resource limitations and procedures can stifle enthusiasm and creativity (e.g. taking DBT skills training into schools, creating an online peer support forum) • Reaching consensus whilst respecting and encouraging difference • Moving out of our comfort zone and developing new skills

38. Learning Points • Highly useful to link in with others and resources (e.g. ImROC) • Having spaces to talk about and review the process. We now have a TOR that includes: • Shared aims • Protocols for working together and participating • Shared expectations and responsibilities • Beneficial for EBEs to have access to their own support and training • Writing a personal “recovery story” has been a useful starting point for EBEs

39. Long-term Co-production Goals • Increase LEAP members • For the majority of the Personality Disorder Hub’s training to be co-produced and co-delivered • Greater integration of EBEs (e.g. paid peer trainer and supporter roles, involvement in business meetings) and people with lived experience having professional roles within the team • We are also developing co-produced courses for A&E staff and the Recovery College
