Aim of Health and Wellbeing Board The aim of the Health and Wellbeing Board is to engage and work together to develop strategies, based on a robust assessment of need that will guide individual agencies to commission and provide services that increase life expectancy, improve quality of life and reduce health inequalities of the people of Cornwall.

What are we doing? Co-producing a specification for Healthwatch Co-Producing our Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy Working closely with NHS partners including the new Kernow Clinical Commissioning Group Building links with the European Centre for Environment and Human Health, the Local Enterprise Partnership, Local Nature Partnership and the Health and Wellbeing Innovation Centre

Healthwatch Local authorities must commission Local Healthwatch by April 2013 (Cornwall’s will be in shadow form from January 2013). It will replace the LINk. Local Healthwatch will ‘influence’ and ‘sign post’ across all services (including children’s). Local Authority must also contract for NHS complaints advocacy. Cornwall was selected as a Healthwatch pathfinder. Stakeholder consultation took place December Further public engagement planned for late May (delivery model) Cornwall Council has entered into negotiations with the voluntary and community sector who are now consulting with the sector on how Healthwatch can be delivered. Funding will continue via the Local Formula Grant (as per current LINk) with additional funding for signposting and advocacy. Will also be contribution to set up costs. Details awaited from Department of Health.

Health and Wellbeing Strategy What we need for Cornwall Evidence based (Joint Strategic Needs Assessment, Assets Assesment) Developed with the public People focused Added value How do we do it better? Wide engagement

Developing the Health and Wellbeing Strategy The Strategy: What it is… Strategic Based on outcomes A lead for commissioning across a range of partner organisations An umbrella for joining-up other strategies based on identified needs and assets An opportunity to take action on identified priorities across the system and unlock potential change for priority groups About health, wellbeing and happiness – a holistic view Positive – we can do this! The Strategy: What it isn’t… A detailed commissioning plan Led by one group/perspective About existing structures/buildings/services etc Waiting for official guidance or imposed from elsewhere Reinventing the wheel or flat tyres!

Joint Strategic Needs Assessment JSNA Legislation and Policy Mapping Commissioners Voluntary Community Sector Places Themes

Joint Strategic Asset Assessment According to the the Asset-Based Community Development Institute ((ABCD) School of Education and Social Policy atSchool of Education and Social Policy Northwestern University): “local assets are considered as the primary building blocks of sustainable community development. Building on the skills of local residents, the power of local associations, and the supportive functions of local institutions, asset- based community development draws upon existing community strengths to build stronger, more sustainable communities for the future.” Through collaboration Cornwall is exploring different approaches to maximising our collective assets whether they be social, economic or environmental to improve wellbeing and health.

Draft Vision for Health and Wellbeing “By 20** Cornwall will be recognised for its innovative and people-centred approach to wellbeing, health and care capitalising on its unique environment. Individuals, families and whole communities will be able to take responsibility for their wellbeing supported by integrated local delivery networks, information and advice. All organisations including the business community, voluntary organisations and education will be working together in a holistic way to ensure that adequate, high quality and targeted services are both accessible and available. People living healthily for longer with a good quality of life will be everyone’s commitment.”
