Public involvement is vital in developing good services, learn Lived Experience online

by Keith -

Lived ExperienceHow users experience services is affected by their own personal circumstances. Gathering the views of people that use your services can help bring issues to life, by illustrating what some are dealing with in their daily lives and the challenges they face. Collecting this valuable information enables you to improve your service, taking into account their concerns and adapting your methods to suit everyone’s needs.

Active listening is a communication technique used in counselling, training and conflict resolution. It requires the listener to:

  • Fully concentrate
  • Understand what someone is saying
  • Interpret body language
  • Respond correctly
  • Record and remember key points

What’s the benefit?

  • Transparency and accountability for organisational decisions
  • Improved services
  • Feedback supports applications for funding and investment
  • Increased trust and credibility within your community

Who needs it?

If you or your organisation deals directly with the public or any public-funded services, it’s great to demonstrate that you’re listening to users.
