Intergrated Care Board
University of Bristol
Dartington Service Design Lab, alongside the University of Bristol, has been working with two Locality Partnerships in the Bristol, North Somerset, and South Gloucestershire Integrated Care System (BNSSG ICS) to develop a theory of change and evaluation framework for their contribution to population health outcomes.
Our response
Our approach to developing theory of change is creative, collaborative and systemic. In this project, we worked together with a university Researcher in Residence, BNSSG Integrated Care Board colleagues and Locality Partnership stakeholders over five workshops to co-develop a shared understanding of the root causes affecting health for the local population, as well as the ways that local services aspire to work together to collectively support health, wellbeing and a reduction of inequality.
The co-developed theories of change for the Woodspring and Weston, Worle and Villages Locality Partnerships reflect their commitment to working in partnership and show the pathway to change from an integrated health and social care perspective.
