Paper: Co-Producing Resources to Raise Awareness of Meals on Wheels
A recently published paper from the University of Bristol describes work to co-produce knowledge translation resources (two infographics and a film) with people with lived experience of Meals on Wheels (MoWs) to raise awareness of MoWs and their benefits.
MoWs could help adults with care and support needs continue living independently, although many people are not aware of the service or its benefits beyond nutrition. The School-funded research project worked with an existing advisory group of six people with lived experience of MoWs (an adult who uses MoWs and people who have referred a family member to MoWs). Four participatory online workshops were held in May–July 2023 to discuss the findings of earlier research, co-produce the knowledge translation resources, and advise on the implications and future dissemination steps. The group also provided informal feedback on a draft of the paper.
