This is the first webinar in our 2024 ‘Prioritising Public Services’ series, which aims to raise and discuss important public service reform issues ahead of this year’s General Election.


This month we are focusing on the importance of great system and place leadership, how it can best work to improve prosperity and well-being for residents and what devolution is needed to make it happen.


The discussion was chaired by Mutual Ventures Chief Executive Andrew Laird with contributions from:

  • Dr Henry Kippin, Chief Executive of the North of Tyne Mayoral Combined Authority (MCA) Interim Chief Executive of the new North East MCA.

  • Prof. Donna Hall, Former Chief Executive of Wigan Council and Mutual Ventures Non-Executive Director.

  • Dr Simon Kaye, Director of Policy at the Reform think tank and author of the recent report “Devolve by Default” report.

Working together to overcome delivery challenges

Multiple agencies and decision-makers - We build a local coalition for change through facilitated workshops and alignment conversations.

Limited time to pilot, learn and scale - We bring learning from Pathfinders and our experience supporting 25+ areas nationally to accelerate implementation and avoid reinventing the wheel.

Competing transformation and pressures - We specialise in working with services on their improvement journey, and align FFP reforms with other initiatives and work already underway, including SEND, Family Hubs.

Risk of structural change without practice change - We keep the focus on outcomes and lived experience, support co-production with families and children, develop outcomes frameworks and child journey mapping.
