We recognise the vital role that the voluntary sector plays in the provision of services, improving wellbeing, developing research and campaigning on issues related to health and wellbeing. We therefore seek representatives from this sector to join us in creating a shared understanding of the challenges facing health and wellbeing, and in developing the solutions to meet these challenges. The team is running a series of workshops during the conference and seeks to develop a workshop investigating the role of the third sector and how improved design of services, health provision, systems and devices can best benefit the sector. It is a unique opportunity for voluntary organisations to be heard and to help shape the future direction of design thinking.
If you work with any charitable or voluntary organisations who you feel should have a voice in the conference, please pass this information on to them.
