Guide to NHS GM Lived Experience Participation Reimbursement

NHS GM Population Health Directorate Lived Experience Participation Fund

NHS Greater Manchester's Tackling Poverty Programme, in partnership with Resolve Poverty, have developed the Lived Experience Participation Fund in recognition of the positive impact People With Lived Experience (PWLE) have in shaping the NHS GM Population Health programmes of work and our ongoing commitment to co-production with PWLE.  ​

Through the fund, PWLE will now be able to be reimbursed for their valued contributions to shaping our programmes of work including WWP. This could include but is not exclusive to: attending a focus group / meeting, reviewing documentation, preparation for a presentation or sharing expertise and insights. The fund also extends to cover transportation costs of PWLE when attending events in-person. ​
