We live in a socially connected world. Why are traditional survey tools still isolating people and what they have to say? Gobby qualitative-first surveys embrace group intelligence and peer understanding. Do you like breaking things? We're looking for beta testers.

The need for efficiency and reducing costs is real. Gobby qualitative-first surveys are designed to reach more people at low cost, complementing meaningful conversations for better decision-making. We're looking for beta testers. Please get in touch and I'll talk through the process.

Where people value the principles of equity and lived experiences, there's a lot of talk and not enough action. With the Gobby qualitative-first survey tool, there's no excuse not ask more open questions and act on the results. Also, do you like breaking things? We're looking for beta testers.

Could we be more aligned in drawing conclusions and decisions? Also, do you like breaking things? Are you using survey tools and interested in testing something new and more equitable? If the answer is yes, we're looking for beta testers. Please get in touch and I'll talk through the process.

Are you interested in hearing what people have to say? Do you like breaking things? Are you using, or wanting to use, online survey tools and interested in testing something new? If the answer is yes, we're looking for beta testers. Please get in touch and I'll talk through the simple process.

Beta tester: a person who tests a product, providing feedback on a product's performance and usability. In March, we'll be sharing a series of posts, recruiting beta testers for the Gobby subscription (SaaS) product. Interested in testing this qualitative-first survey tool? Email: [email protected]

Today we are proud to launch our joint report with People's Voice Media on 'Understanding Racism in Co-Production Spaces' Read our blog from Isaac Samuels for a link to the report and to find out more. #anti-racism #coproduction www.coproductioncollective.co.uk/news/underst...

With two more Gobby survey projects coming to a close, and new updates to the software, we're open to new survey projects. Are you looking to do some #qualitative research? Need to meaningfully communicate and engage with people in the process? #codesign #coproduction #socialimpact

Sick of hearing about #AI? Well, this week, we introduce #AI to Gobby #surveys to aid #qualitative analysis and #reporting 😇 (Sorry) But, we're keeping it light to ensure HI (Human Intelligence) remains at the centre of #coproduction. #Qualitative and mixed methods #research with responsible AI

The stories shared in this Gobby survey reinforce why @angelacat.bsky.social established the When I Get Old #WIGO movement. Calls for #DoWith in evolving #socialcare and support in the UK are becoming stronger and more data driven. We're here to amplify voices and promote positive change.

📢 We're calling for new investment in Earlier Action and Support to enable more people to live their life their way, alongside the Time to Act Reform Board and the Local Government Association. bit.ly/3Zrl2MU #FutureOfASC @clentonf.bsky.social

First, long, solo autumnal walk of the year. Good for the soul.

go.bsky.app/25nDNdz I have added you to the mix @longhouseman.bsky.social hope that is ok

1/ TLAP, with partners, has long advocated for events about social care to include people who draw on that care and support as equal participants. This means better access to funded places and participation, as well as equal status on the platforms others can take for granted.

I've set up a couple of 'starter packs' to help me and others find people with shared interests. The first is on #PublicInvolvement and #Co-production in health and care research: go.bsky.app/PWEAnFR

I'm so pleased to be featured in an NHS England co-produced short film about strategic co-production in the design of services for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities. Please do have a watch! m.youtube.com/watch?v=a4pZ...

Welcome bsky.app/profile/apgr... to #Bluesky It's a nice place to be!

Twitter’s heir apparent isn’t X or Threads — it’s Bluesky / Bluesky seems to have a real shot at becoming the next big place to get the pulse of the internet www.theverge.com/2024/11/23/2...

20m users this week. And breath...

100%. True co-production requires committed, longer-term investment that many people underestimate: adequate funding, time, flexibility, challenging your own biases & assumptions, openness to new ways of working that may feel uncomfortable at first, resolving tedious institutional barriers…
