Welcome to Weaving the Web - the podcast series from the National Expert Citizens Group (NECG).
In this series, we'll be exploring examples of good practice around our four strategic priorities. These are the issues lying at the heart of what's known as 'multiple disadvantage' – where someone experiences a combination of several unmet health and social needs – in England and Wales today.
In our second episode, we'll be exploring the first of our strategic priorities: housing and homelessness. We’ll be speaking to Jim Thomson and Midori Hol from Westminster-based homeless charity The Passage about their coproduced framework for tackling homelessness and how service user involvement can be brought into the mainstream.
Coordinated by Revolving Doors, the NECG is the lived experience group for people in the Changing Futures programme, a joint-funded initiative of the National Lottery Community Fund and the Ministry for Housing, Communities and Local Government. By co-producing solutions with people who have lived experience of multiple disadvantage, we’re here to shape system change and advocate for services that are trauma-informed, accessible and person-centred.
