Co-production in healthcare is a transformative approach that involves people using services, caregivers, and healthcare professionals working together to design, deliver and evaluate health services. The National Strategic Programme for Mental Health have a requirement for the procurement of expert capacity and support to assist the organisation in working with the mental health system in Wales to transform community mental health services.
Community Mental Health Services in Wales play a vital role in providing accessible mental health care and support to people living with mental health conditions. These services are critical in promoting mental well-being, providing early intervention, providing treatment and support, and reducing the need for inpatient services.

Addressing these challenges requires the transformation of community services to create a more robust, person centred, accessible, and sustainable mental health service system that can meet the needs of all individuals across Wales in a timely manner as identified as one of the key Visions for Wales outlined in the draft Mental Health and Wellbeing Strategy (2025-2035).
The NHS Executive aim to address these issues through a three-year transformation programme, implementing Stepped Care 2.0 as a framework for mental health system redesign.
