Dear All

I am sharing a message from Tarnia Mason from the Q team regarding this years’ Q exchange and how we can all get involved.

*****
I’m getting in touch to ask about your interest and availability to be involved in the shortlisting process of Q Exchange 4 applications.

Q Exchange is Q’s £800,000 participatory funding programme delivered by Q and jointly funded by the Health Foundation and the NHS, in partnership for digital health and care. It offers Q members the chance to develop project ideas and submit bids for up to £40,000 of funding. This year we are seeking project ideas on the theme of Bringing together the worlds and methods of improvement and digital, to enable better outcomes and faster, more sustainable change.

Up to 30 projects will be shortlisted and put forward to the Q community who vote on which projects should receive funding. The winners will be announced in April 2022. More information about Q Exchange, the process and timeline, can be found on the Q website.

This year we are building on the shortlisting approach used in the last two rounds. This approach brings together more people from the community to help decide the shortlist. We hope that being involved will be a thought-provoking and collaborative experience.

Please get in touch via @rammya-mathew, if you are interested in shortlisting for Q Exchange 2022.

Attached is a brief that explains the person specification and requirements for assessing. We will use this information to develop the shortlisting panels.

If you have any queries or would like some more information, please get in touch with the Q Exchange team.
