1. Our health
& wellbeing

2. Coming together
We’ve been listening. You’ve told us what works, what doesn’t and what more we need to do. Now we are coming together to take action.

3. Lambeth is a place of innovation.
Great things are happening
in the Borough.
We’re thinking big and bold.

4. Lambeth Together: our vision
Our vision is to improve health and reduce health inequalities for people in Lambeth
We want Lambeth to be the place where:
Health and wellbeing are improving for all, and improving fastest for those with the poorest health and wellbeing
People are able to reach their full potential and feel good about themselves
Everyone feels valued and has choices about their health and wellbeing
People are safe from harm

5. Our successes so far
We have a strong track record of working together and working in new ways.
We’ve already made radical changes to some services and ways of working.
Living Well Network Hub
Integrated Personalised Support Alliance
Project Smith
Local Care Networks
Lambeth Early Action Partnership
Black Thrive

6. Why we need to keep innovating
We’ve shown that working together and harnessing all our expertise brings benefits to people using our services and to staff.
We want to make this happen as a rule, not an exception
We want to spread the success
We know there are things that still don’t work well
We know we cannot stand still, there is more work to do
We face a gap between expected demand and the money available.
That is why we are coming together at every level to for Lambeth Together.

7. What is Lambeth Together?
Lambeth Together is an exciting development, bringing together different organisations and stakeholders to work as one. It builds on the great things we are already doing and helps us plan to do even more.
Lambeth Together is:
A way of working, a culture that unites us all – The Lambeth Together Way
How we organise services around people and places – The Delivery Alliances
How we bring things together as a whole system – the Strategic Alliance

8. The Lambeth Together Way
A way of working and a culture that defines and unites us, developed with citizens and staff and embedded in all we do.
The Delivery Alliances
Moving away from basing services around organisations and make them based around people and places
Lambeth Together Strategic Alliance
A single leadership and set of integrated functions to create our one system and one budget

9. Our principles – alliance working
We take collective responsibility
We make decisions on a ‘Best for Lambeth People’ basis
We commit to unanimous, principle and value based-decision making on all key issues
We adopt a culture of 'no fault, no blame’
We use open book accounting and transparency in all matters
We appoint and select key roles on a best person basis
We act in accordance with the Alliance Values and Behaviours at all times.

10. Our draft design principles – co-production
We create services where:
Prevention and equality are the focus
People are in control of their health and wellbeing
Care and support are co- ordinated and recognise the whole person
When we design services, we:
involve people who use those services (or may use them) and their families as well as those who work in services, from the outset
are open and honest and share our realities, to build shared understanding, ownership and collective responsibility for what we are doing
have joint commitment to sharing power and decisions with citizens
don’t use jargon or acronyms
recognise that everyone has a unique contribution; we listen and respect all perspectives
are innovative and rapidly test, learn and share

11. A better future for all
We believe that Lambeth Together will bring benefits to everyone using or working within health, care and other services in the borough
For Lambeth people
For Lambeth staff
For Lambeth health and care providers
For other Lambeth organisations and local businesses
For Lambeth commissioners
