"description": "******* Market Engagement Event *******\n'Socially Connected Derbyshire' CPH130\nCo-Design Workshop 13 November 2025\nDerbyshire County Council is hosting a Market Engagement event at the Parkwood Centre, Alfreton, on 13 November, from 9:45 to 11:30am, to support the co-design of the Social Connectedness Service for Derbyshire.\nParticipation or non-participation in the market engagement events will not prevent any provider from participating in any potential procurement process, nor is it intended that any information supplied as part of these discussions will place any provider at an advantage in a potential procurement process. \nThe event is open to all providers who have interest in the delivery of Social Connectedness services. \nThe workshop session will focus on two areas of design:\n1. Collaboration\n•\tExploring collaboration approaches: Discuss how providers can work together both locally and across the county once the service is live, ensuring communities receive the best possible support. Examples may include local collaborative approaches to tendering and delivery, as well as establishing a county-wide steering group to promote social connection.\n•\tIdentifying barriers and enablers: Examine the factors that either hinder or support effective collaboration and consider how the service specification can help enable collaborative approaches.\n2. Outcomes & Evaluation:\n•\tDefining meaningful outcomes: Identify clear and relevant outcomes for the Social Connection service that will inform the development of the service specification.\n•\tExploring evaluation methods: Discuss inclusive and realistic approaches to measuring impact, ensuring that evaluation reflects diverse community experiences.\n•\tIdentifying success measures: Determine what success looks like, both for individuals and for communities, and how it can be effectively captured and monitored.\nThe session format\nThe session will begin with an overview providing context and sharing existing insights on the two topics for exploration.\nThis will be followed by facilitated roundtable discussions, after which each table will share their feedback to the group. \nAll discussion outcomes will be collated and summarised and shared with attendees and published on Proactis. \nThe outputs from the co-design workshop will be used to inform the service specification for Socially Connected Derbyshire.\nWhat do I need to prepare for the session?\nPlease come prepared to share learning from projects you have previously been involved in, as well as any community insights you have gathered on the topics. \nThere will not be time for individual presentations; however, during the roundtable discussions, we encourage you to share real-life examples. \nThese could include a case study, an example of an outcome measure you currently use, or a report demonstrating progress towards social connection or community cohesion.\nHow to book onto the session\nIf you have already confirmed your attendance from the previous online event, you should have received a calendar invite.\nIf you haven't and would like to attend, please email us at firstcontact@derbyshire.gov.uk and we will send you the invitation. \nPlease see link to all published information from the previous online event: https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=c90f5920-2eb3-f011-813a-005056b64545",
