Making Families Count C.I.C. was registered as a C.I.C. on February 14th 2019. We have two aims:To provide training, information and advice to professionals working in public, private and voluntary organisations providing health and social care services within the UK, specifically where there has been serious harm or traumatic bereavement to service users and their families and based on the lived experience of those families.Also, to improve engagement between such services and families to prevent serious harm. We aim to ensure that families affected by these issues are given better support, training, information and advice. Our team includes families with lived experience together with experienced serious incident investigators and reviewers from the NHS and the voluntary sector.In the financial year 2022/23, we have benefited the community by:- Transitioning our training and support offer to NHS and social care providers from a face-to-face training model to one of virtual online training. This has proved more flexible and attractive to delegates and their organisations.- We delivered 2 series of online webinars (Spring and Autumn) during the course of the year. Each series has a range of webinar titles and focuses on specific issues of importance, highlighted by the experience of our community. In addition, we developed and delivered 4 bespoke training packages for 4 NHS providers in specific areas of practice and presented at 2 conferences.- We are now seen as an organisation that the NHS identifies for collaborative working. We have completed a collaborative project, with a network of NHS Mental Health providers, and developed a guidance resource for providers to improve engagement with families after patient safety incidents. This resource has been published across the NHS. And developed and delivered a training programme for a Local Authority, in conjunction with a national charity – Autism Oxford. This work now has the potential to be rolled out as a national training offer for other local authority services.- We have been the lead partner, facilitating a project – Life Beyond the Cubicle, which seeks to support healthcare staff engage effectively with families and service users experiencing mental health crisis. This project has been funded by Health Education England (NHS England) and provides eLearning materials reflecting the lived experiences of families and service users.- Our expert speakers provided input to national and local NHS and social care conference events across the UK, generating income for the organisation and raising our profile.- We continue our communication channels via online blogs of the lived experiences of families and digitally via social media platforms.- In addition, we have expanded our library of short films that include the lived experience of families who have experienced serious harm or traumatic bereavement and advice from experienced health professionals. These resources are used as a key part of our training.This year we have generated strong income levels via our online webinars and projects with NHS providers. We are developing several new contracts with organisations for 2023.
Our stakeholders are predominantly professionals working in health and social care and the voluntary sector, together with families who have experienced serious harm or traumatic bereavement.We undertake regular evaluation and feedback from those NHS and social care organisations we work with, using their feedback to improve and develop our work.We have developed a small advisory group of families who have experienced serious harm or traumatic bereavement, to help us in developing new resources in relation to our project work. During the next year, we are further developing our membership to act as a sounding board for the directors overseeing our forward strategy.
Directors receive a fee plus any expenses for the preparation and delivery of training on behalf of the organisation, in line with organisational policy.No directors receive remuneration for their role as directors.
No transfer of assets other than for full consideration
