How we work
At NHS Horizons we don’t have a specific methodology or way of working, and we adapt different tools based on the specifics of the intervention. There are several tools that we’re particularly known for, so we’ve provided some information about what they are and how we use them.
- Crowdsourcing
- ADE (Accelerated Design Events)
- Tweet chats
- Virtual collaborate
- Spread and Innovation
- Complexity Research
If you would like to get in touch about working with us, we would love to hear from you.
