David Robinson

Job Titles:
  • Performance Co - Ordinator
My name is David Robinson and I'm the Performance Coordinator of the Durham Mental Wellbeing Alliance. I have worked in support services for over 17 years, my roles in that time have differed from delivering support to individuals, coordinating support and managing support services. Prior to joining the Alliance management team I was invited to and took part in areas of its implementation. It's been great to see organisations working collaboratively to get the service ready for go live and it was impossible not to get caught up in the shared enthusiasm. It took a lot of work to get us to that point and the next year will be no different as we set out to embed the Single Point of Access, promote the Alliance and look at gaps and demand in the County. The Alliance provides an amazing opportunity for services to share knowledge, experience and work in co-production to make sure were delivering the best possible services for the people of County Durham. I'm really excited to see it grow, develop and look at innovative ways to provide the right services in the right areas.
