Chair’s introduction I am pleased to present this progress update and refresh of our Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy 2016-18, taking stock of progress over the last couple of years and looking ahead to the development of a new Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy. Health and Wellbeing Boards are now in their sixth year of existence. Through this partnership we are uniquely placed to work together to improve the health and wellbeing of our residents, offering Content democratic accountability, roots into and knowledge of our local community and the hopes and aspirations of our citizens. The role of the Board is to act as a systems leader or Chair’s introduction 3 ‘anchor of place’ for the local health and care system by: 1 Healthy weight, healthy lives 6 2 Reducing alcohol-related harm 8 Creating the right Involving the Shaping focused Having a shared conditions for community in vision influencing and targeted genuine mapping need and priorities of partner 3 Resilient families 10 collaboration designing solutions priority actions organisations 4 The first 1,001 days 12 5 Ensuring good mental health for all 15 We continue to focus on tackling the root causes of health inequality and improving the health and wellbeing of our residents, in spite of the challenging financial context in which we are working. The past year has been a very busy period in the Health and Wellbeing Board - with a number of new plans and strategies in place both locally and nationally. We have been trialling a new approach to ensuring we meet our priorities, with the aim of: ❱❱ Shifting from monitoring delivery to a more influential role as an anchor of place. ❱❱ Looking to develop new priorities focused on people and communities. ❱❱ Adopting a stronger system leadership role and influence joint solutions in addressing local need. On top of our existing five strategic priority areas, for 2019 the Board has agreed to look in-depth at two areas. The first is looking in-depth at and exploring all the levers at our disposal to tackle obesity in Camden. Obesity is one of the most serious public health challenges of the 21st century. Without action, the health of individuals will continue to suffer, health inequalities associated with obesity will remain and the economic and social costs will increase to unsustainable levels. Obesity is a complex problem with 2 3
a large number of different but often interlinked causes. No single measure is likely to be effective on its own. To have a significant impact on obesity levels, it is clear that everybody needs to get involved. We know to make a positive impact, we require a ‘whole system’ approach, bringing together partners Health and Wellbeing Board from across the community to work together to address the multiple drivers of obesity. Among a range of areas of focus and key outcomes other actions, building on progress to date under our Healthy weight, healthy lives strategic priority (more detail later in this report) we will think about how health fits into our wider policies and strategic plans, and where we have the best opportunity to use the levers at our disposal to affect positive change. In another key initiative, we will shortly be launching a communications campaign which aims to make Camden a place where everyone has the opportunity to maintain a healthy lifestyle through physical activity and a healthy diet. Our second area of focus is around developing a citizen-led approach to health and wellbeing in the west of the borough (across Kilburn, West Hampstead, Fortune Green and Swiss Cottage) working closely with residents to explore opportunities to improve health and wellbeing outcomes. Fundamentally this area of work is focused on engaging and empowering citizens to improve their own health and wellbeing, and that of their communities and reduce inequalities. It’s about: ❱ Citizen-led health creation, enabling and supporting citizens to be active agents in their health and wellbeing. ❱ Engaging the community, organisations and partners living and working in a local area to think more deeply about opportunities and barriers to health and wellbeing, and to work together to find and test solutions. Citizen-led Obesity whole ❱ Citizens co-designing what an integrated, place-based health and wellbeing system looks like at a neighbourhood level (e.g. primary care, community services, mental health, social care, Voluntary and neighbourhood Focus areas system approach approach pilot Community Sector (VCS), leisure, arts, culture, employment support among others). for 2019 We have reflected on this landscape and the learning and insight we will gather in 2019 will inform the development of a new Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy for 2020. As we work as a partnership and with our citizens on developing our new strategy, throughout 2019 we will remain focussed on drawing on all the levers available to us in tackling obesity in Camden and piloting new ways of working through our citizen-led neighbourhood approach to health and wellbeing. Alongside this, we will continue to champion and provide system leadership against our five continuing Health and Wellbeing Board priorities, which is illustrated on the opposite page.
