Collective Power in partnership with Ideas Alliance and The LENs (Lived Experience Network)
Together we are stronger.
In collaboration with the Ideas Alliance and The LENs this award aims to recognise an inspiring project, consortium, collective or movement of people in which meaningful partnership and co-production has improved the health and wellbeing of individuals and communities through culture and creativity.
We are keen to hear about all scales of collaboration: from small grassroots initiatives and emerging virtual communities to sector-wide consortiums. Your work may address the specific wellbeing needs of local residents in a street, or challenge limiting societal beliefs or inequalities experienced by communities of people. .
Working together with The LENs, we are increasing our focus on co-production and lived experience. We are particularly interested in examples where co-production is embedded in planning, design and delivery.
We invite all types of groups and collectives to apply. You do not need to be a constituted group, legal entity or established organisation. The key is meaningful partnerships and collaboration bringing together different fields of practice and lived experience.
As part of this award, all shortlisted projects will be showcased nationally by the Ideas Alliance on their online Ideas Hub
