The Edgar Cahn book, No More Throw-Away People, relates the parable of the Blobs and Squares to explain the concept of ‘co-production’ (a relatively new buzz-word in Australia in aged care circles) in the design and delivery of care services in the UK. This video, co-produced by Time Banking UK retells the story. And it nails it! Very educative for all ‘consumers’! Watch it, smile and nod knowingly. And be ahead of the pack if you find yourself needing to discuss care and support services. See also the Frank & Earnest article on ‘co-production’.
