Renewing Action for a Healthier Barnsley Public Health Strategy • 2018 to 2021 Public Health Strategy 2018 to 2021 Produced by Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council, Public Health Directorate Design by Beth Heath
FOREWORD Renewing our Public Health Strategy is an opportunity for us to refect on what we have achieved with our partners to improve the health and wellbeing of Barnsley residents. We want to renew our actions for a healthier Barnsley by working collaboratively to improve our residents’ health and wellbeing at an accelerated pace. This approach strengthens our eforts on prioritising policy level action to support individual behaviour change in order to improve healthy life expectancy and reduce health inequalities. The priority areas set out in this strategy have been selected for the impact they have in Barnsley on avoidable illness and early death, and the consequences of both in terms of lost quality of life, lost economically productive years and pressure on health and social care services. The priorities also respond to key fndings from recent Director of Public Health Annual Reports. In the 2016 report1, we heard about the impact of alcohol, depression, smoking, food and exercise and how residents of Barnsley want to be “the best of the best”. The 2017 ‘A day in the life of…’ report2 based on diaries of local residents describes people’s daily challenges that afect their physical and mental health, and describes how to help individuals, their family, Cllr Jim Andrews and their friends live healthier lives. We have designed our approach to complement the existing strategic plans of the council and the health and care system. Our Public Health Strategy will contribute specifcally to the Health & Wellbeing Strategy, and the Barnsley Plan. Deputy Leader of the Council We are grateful to our partners and colleagues across the council for their input in developing Cabinet Spokesperson our renewed Strategy. for Public Health IF YOU REQUIRE THIS DOCUMENT IN AN EASY TO READ FORMAT PLEASE REQUEST YOUR 01226 787416 BarnsleyCouncil COPY VIA ANY OF THE FOLLOWING WAYS: Write to Public Health Directorate, Barnsley PublicHealth@barnsley.gov.uk @barnsleycouncil Council, P O Box 634, Barnsley, S70 9GG 2 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lhPPDhzH1I 2 https://www.barnsley.gov.uk/media/7655/director-of-public-health-2017-annual-report.pdf

These determinants include political, social, economic, environmental and cultural access to health care. factors which shape the conditions in which we are born, grow, live, work and age. Achieving a healthy population We need to look at the bigger picture: requires greater action on these factors to keep all our residents well, not simply action on treating ill health alone.
