Who are service users and carers?
- It could be anyone – nearly all of us use health or social care services!
- People who have learning disabilities, people who have used mental health and other services, carers, parents, young people, and sometimes children
- People from different communities and backgrounds
- Usually, people with quite a bit of experience of using health or care services
- It depends on the topic – sometimes members of community groups or the general public might be involved
- When we are thinking about involvement with education, they are people who are willing to share their experiences to help students learn
