Help shape our work
Our CitizenLab service helps you shape the work that we do.
CitizenLab gives you an easy way to get involved with our work and share your ideas and opinions. We use it to bring together groups of people, collect your views, conduct surveys and run quick polls.
What you tell us helps us understand the things that are important to you. We can use what we learn to make our services and information better for everyone.
The things we're working on change all the time. At the moment, projects on CitizenLab include:
|
This is an opportunity to join a panel, run by CQC, of people who have experience of being detained under the Mental Health Act, in the last 2 years.
The Access-Able Panel brings together people with experience of using health and social care services who deliver a diverse range of expertise, knowledge and skills to a range of accessibility issues.
If you'd like to find out more about these projects or other work taking place on CitizenLab, sign up using the links below. When you join, you'll be sent an email when new information or projects are added. You can also sign in to see what activities are currently live and ready for you to take part in.

Have your say on the new Liberty Protection Safeguards
The government is updating the Mental Capacity Act Code of Practice and considering a new system of safeguards – the Liberty Protection Safeguards. This new system will replace the Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards.
They want to know what you think about the new system they have designed.
The government knows that not everyone will want to fill out the consultation survey. Because of this, they will also be holding some online events. These events will give people with lived experience of the Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards and the Mental Capacity Act the opportunity to tell the government what they think about the Liberty Protection Safeguards and what this might mean for them.
The online events will be roughly two and half hours long, with half an hour for breaks. The events will be run by the Department of Health and Social Care. They will be led by Hilary Paxton who has previously led events for people with lived experience about the Liberty Protection Safeguards.
