Issue - meetings

To consider a report outlining a proposal for monitoring of the HWBB Delivery Plan for 2023/2024 and 2024/2025.

Nigel Minns, Executive Director for People provided an overview in relation to the full report provided in the agenda pack. It was noted that there are three priority areas in the statutory functions for the 2-year, high level delivery plan.

The first requirement is that Joint Strategic Needs Assessments (JSNAs) are completed to assess the need of the population in the county. Secondly, there is a requirement for a joint response to the needs highlighted in the JSNAs. Finally, that the new strategy influences any joint commissioning arrangements. The proposed plan reflects these requirements.

The board was reminded of the three priorities that the Health and Wellbeing Board (HWBB) agreed to focus on over the next two years –

•     To help children and young people have the best start in life.

•     To help people improve their mental health and wellbeing with a focus on prevention and early intervention.

•     To reduce inequalities in health and the wider determinants of health.

The delivery plan is appendix 1 and shows a range of delivery mechanisms and strategies. The board was asked to note the colour coding in appendix one in relation to each of the actions. The delivery of the priorities has very close links to three place partnerships in place with the HWBB.  The three place partnerships in Warwickshire are the South Warwickshire, Rugby, and Warwickshire North. The work carried out by the place partnerships is vital and helps to feed into the delivery plan.
