Report of the Director of Public Health.

The Health and Wellbeing Board’s work programme is developed by Board members and partners, with oversight from the Chair of the Board and support from Camden strategy officers. The future programme is intended to be a working document and will be reviewed and agreed by the Board at every meeting. The Board is asked to note the draft programme and suggest items for inclusion at future meetings.

Report of the Executive Director, Adults and Health.

The purpose of this report is to present the Camden Health and Wellbeing Board with an update on the Camden Neighbourhoods programme of work, outlining the breadth of activity and highlighting alignment with the North Central London (NCL) Integrated Care Board (ICB) emerging model for neighbourhoods. The Camden Neighbourhoods Programme is a strategic priority for Camden’s borough partnership and is jointly led by the London Borough of Camden, NHS and community partners. Camden’s Neighbourhood model builds on existing good practice with test and learn activity, enabling council and NHS services to innovate new approaches that provide a more seamless experience for people with additional needs.

This report provides an overview of Camden’s broad approach to neighbourhoods, set within the context of national policy agendas including the long-term reform of the NHS. The cover report introduces the policy context, and the attached presentations detail the emerging NCL model alongside recent activity happening in Camden.

Report of the Director of Health and Wellbeing and the Executive Director, Children and Learning.

Healthy and Ready for School is a key short-term priority of our local borough partnership’s joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy 2022-30. The Health and Wellbeing Board works to ensure that partners from across the system understand their unique roles in this work.

This item considers three key work programmes which serve the strategic ambition of reducing health and educational inequalities so that every child has the best possible start in life:

• Family Hubs – Building local networks and bringing services closer to our resident community
• Family Help – Developing a local, integrated approach to support for families across the continuum of need
• RAISE Camden - Camden’s child health equity programme, aimed at improving projected worsening health trends for children and young people

The Board is asked to consider progress on these programmes of work across the past 12 months in relation to the named strategic priority, plus opportunities for future impact and what the local borough partnership can do to enable change.
