We (the Study Team) are carrying out an evaluation of the profiling tool and its implementation across the Cheshire and Merseyside area. We are not the Project Team, who are rolling out the tool at ICB level.

We have been asked to carry out this evaluation to help co-produce a tool that is evidence-based and representative of children and young people across Cheshire and Merseyside and their needs. Our aim is to co-produce a refined version of the tool, based on our findings and conversations with stakeholders.

The findings and recommendations that come from the evaluation will be shared with the ICB, who will then determine what if any refinements will be made to the tool and its rollout across Cheshire and Merseyside.

If you would like to get involved in any of the co-production or stakeholder implementation workshops, please email the study team at cwp.ndprofilestudy@nhs.net
