This is just the beginning. Over the coming weeks, we’ll be building on these conversations—sharing more content, insights and examples of how Co-production can drive meaningful innovation. Our final question of the day is: What has been your key takeaway from Co-production Week?

As #CoProWeek2025 draws to a close, we want to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has taken part—whether by attending events, contributing to discussions or engaging with our content on social media💙

In this blog and in a video on our Facebook and LinkedIn pages, we bring together tributes from his family, friends and colleagues to honour his legacy and the lasting impact he had on all of us:

John sadly passed away in January 2025, and his loss was felt deeply by everyone at the Social Care Institute for Excellence (SCIE) and Think Local Act Personal (TLAP).

At the end of Co-production Week 2025, we want to celebrate the life and legacy of John Evans—a remarkable man, a fearless campaigner and a true pioneer. His tireless advocacy shaped the Independent Living Movement, SCIE’s co-production work, and the broader fight for equality.

Co-production with people with lived experience of social care and health underpins and informs everything that SCIE and TLAP do. Watch this video of Kevin Minier, Co-Production Network Member at SCIE, to learn more about how we co-produced #CoProWeek2025📷.

For #CoProWeek2025, join us as we explore how the Association of Directors of Adult Social Services (ADASS) worked with people with lived experience and partners to develop a new vision for co-production:

However, SCIE has expressed concern about the lack of clarity on how the Plan will interface with the social care system, an omission that risks undermining the Plan’s transformative goals.
