What is Involvefest?
Involvefest is a week-long celebration of Personal and Public Involvement (PPI) across Health and Social Care in Northern Ireland. Led by the Public Health Agency (PHA), it brings together service users, carers, staff, and community partners to showcase how involvement improves services and outcomes.
Why It Matters
PPI is a legal duty for HSC organisations and ensures services are person-centred, responsive, and co-designed with those who use them. Involvefest highlights the impact of involvement and encourages everyone to play a part.
