in Mind
• Introducing Mind and ‘Service Design in Mind’
• The impact of using Service Design
• Our reflection on the journey: what we have learned
• Questions
4. We won’t give up until
everyone experiencing a
mental health problem gets
both support and respect
5.
6. • 140 local Minds
• Combined annual income of circa £102.55M
• More than 1/3million people supported annually
by local mind
• It provides a wealth of 963 services
• People living with mental health problems are
involved in the running of all local Minds

Local Minds are just that: local

9. Invitation to tender (Summer 2013)
We teamed up with our partner Innovation Unit to
create an approach to service design that draws
on national and international practice.

challenges for the Local Minds Network
• A vision for more collaborative and innovative

Case studies and hints & tips
28. - Timely
- No resource requirement
- Local impact
“One thing that was really good about the requirement to use
service design tools and methods was that it encouraged us not
to cut corners. For “old lags” like Jean and I – because we are
very experienced – there is sometimes a temptation to do that.
But this process forces you to be rigorous and I do think that as
a result of this, the output was much better.”
- CEO
Local, Independent
Pros:
29. - Quality control
- Understanding/knowledge is based on
interpretation
“One criticism that I have of the toolkit is that it is not very
user-friendly and includes a lot of jargon – titles like
‘Prototype Planner’ can be off-putting. I understand the
ideas behind them but if you are running a young
person’s focus group you can’t really use tools like that –
I mean you certainly can’t just photocopy them. Although
I’m familiar with service design, I’m not familiar with that
kind of language.”
- CEO
Local, Independent
Cons:
30. - Set clear project direction
- Allows them to set timeline
“I think it provides you with a really strong evidence base
and a platform and confidence to persuade people of the
importance of your work. It also ensures a level of quality
and consistency. The value of coproduction speaks for
itself – it’s just common sense really, isn’t it?”
- CEO
Local, Introduced
Pros:
31. - Only a brief introduction
- Unable to address gaps in knowledge
“For me personally – and I’m obviously not speaking for
everyone here, as I was actually the only ‘Expert by
Experience’ on the team – since I had my mental breakdown
I’ve had trouble taking in and remembering large amounts of
information. So for me that workshop [Introduction to Service
Design workshop] was really intimating and I struggled to retain
the learning.”
- Researcher
Local, Introduced
Cons:
32. - Structured, intensive support
- Resource to dedicate time
- Requirement to complete
“Paola worked with me quite a lot on framing the
questions based on what we’d found out in the
service user interviews. We asked different
questions to different experts, which I hadn’t thought
of, so it was a lot more insightful.”
- Service Manager
Local, Funded
Pros:
33. - Different relationship/power dynamic
- Have to tie it to Mind’s strategic aims
“It was a real struggle [to convince people to use ethnography].
Because I wasn’t an expert to convince them of the benefits of
doing it that way, by the time I suggested it, it probably wasn’t
as strong an argument than it would have been if we’d had an
expert explain it.”
- Service Manager
Local, Funded
Cons:
34. - In-depth, tailored support
- Strategic impact
“The toolkit is very well-used and is starting to
disintegrate – that must be a good sign!”
- CEO
Local, Supported
Pros:
35. - Time and resource-intensive
- Can stagnate over time
““I think the programme is great, but I have the sense that
there’s more stuff out there and more that we could be
doing and learning about service design. I feel like we’ve
just scratched the surface. Is there a whole plethora out
there…for when we get bored?! What’s missing from our
knowledge?”
- Programme Manager

Cons:
36. - Working with the
right people
- Truly exploring
opportunities

Pros:
37. - Have to build evidence
- Lack of immediate action

Value to Service Users

“I felt really great; it was
thoroughly enjoyable,
whole thing was really
stimulating.”
“What was important
for me was that I felt
we were heard.”
“You get a bit of a
confidence boost and a
good feeling about it,
definitely.”

Our future plans
52. Luke Williams, Disruptive Thinking, 2012
When you “think what no
one else is thinking, and do
what no one else is doing” it
doesn’t make for the most
comfortable experience
53. So what are the risks to the
experience of being a
disrupter within an
organisational context?
55. Nurturing the conditions for
transformative practice
• Build engagement from a basis of personal
values, not organisational obligations
• Find and foster your fellow “disrupters”
• Be tactical - Develop a stepped and paced
theory of change to best direct and appraise
your impact
56. Our challenges ahead
Organisationally:
• Can you introduce design next to other project
management approaches?
• How to expose the whole organisation to the
value of service design – Not just fidgeting with the
edges
• How to meet the demand to show impact on
traditional KPIs?
• How to avoid design to be misused and
misinterpreted – Growing excellent service design
57. Operationally
• Often the SD Team is not the initiator – Quality
control?
• Make a clear offer for ‘progression’ and
excellent service design and build the support
needed
• How to ensure commissioners provide space
for design
57
Our challenges ahead
58. People:
• How to manage the expectations for how much
time it takes to really embed new capabilities
• Where to find the right skills-set?
• Service designers with the right motivation,
generosity and patience to work towards
system change
“It is a long term game”
Our challenges ahead
