Remit of the group
The Exchange Network was established in 2014 and is a co-facilitated opportunity where patients, carers, researchers, clinicians and managers can learn together. We focus on involvement, improvement, research, and the experience of health services. We use action learning and peer support to work through topics and ideas. It is an opportunity to network with new people, reconnect with individuals who can provide informal support and share opportunities across London. This is a shared space for all members to use hosted by the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Collaboration for Leadership in Applied Health Research and Care (CLAHRC) for Northwest London. Examples of activities include:
1. Reporting on events/activities the group could learn from
2. Reporting back on ideas or actions taken as a result of previous meetings
3. Bringing a topic or issue you’d like help with
4. Testing out ideas or tools to use in practice
Frequency of meetings
To be agreed
Who can consult the group?
