Putting the Charter Into Practice

This report highlights the main findings from 15 interviews carried out with chief executive officers or other senior staff of organisations that have made a formal commitment to put the Charter for Involvement into practice.

It sets out the difference that implementing the Charter has made for organisations and shares learning and practical steps that have been taken to put the Charter into practice.

This will inform and guide future work carried out by the National Involvement Network to further embed the Charter into Scotland’s health and social care sector and will, we hope, motivate and encourage other organisations to sign up to it.

Over 65 organisations have signed up (word.doc) to the Charter so far.
