Decision details

 The first Bath and North East Somerset Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy (JHWS) was published in November 2013.  The approval of the CCG 5 year strategic plan, publication of NHS England’s ‘The 5 Year Forward View’, publication of the first Health and Wellbeing Board annual report and work on a new Council vision and corporate plan means a lot has changed since November 2013. The Strategy needed to be refreshed in order to reflect this change.

Council on 16^th September adopted the refreshed strategy.

RESOLVED:

1)  To adopt the refreshed Bath and North East Somerset Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy.

2)  To note that a final Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy will be submitted to Council for approval as forms part of our policy and budget framework.

A number of recent developments including the approval of the CCG 5 Year Plan, publication of NHS England’s 5 Year Forward View and the LGA Health and Wellbeing Board peer review held in 2014 mean that it is timely to undertaken a light touch refresh of the Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy.

None.
