Networks

We can offer support to any group, team or organisation that might be looking to bring a group of like-minded people together. Groups or networks might have a common purpose or a collective goal, bringing in a range of perspectives across geographical locations or team disciplines.

We will facilitate discussions that enable network members to define what their aims are and how they would like to work together. Using the National Involvement Standards (NSUN), we encourage networks to reflect on: 

  • Their purpose and shared vision
  • Their principles: defining their boundaries and how to work safely together
  • How to ensure presence and participation, bringing in a range of voices and perspectives
  • What the process will be: how often and where to meet, how to measure the impact of the network and its core aims
  • Impact: measuring success and achievements and how this might be shared outside of the network

We've effectively assisted organisations in establishing internal networks and navigating challenges when peer supporters are dispersed across different teams. As external facilitators, we guide your staff through reflection to drive positive actions.
