The Leeds Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy 2016+

Explaining the approach to creating the refreshed Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy for Leeds and seeking early views for its development

What is a Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy?

Who writes it?The 3 Clinical Commissioning Groups and Local Authority in Leeds have a ‘equal and joint statutory duty’ to produce and publish a Joint Strategic Need Assessment (JSNA) and a Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy (JHWS). This duty is discharged through the Leeds Health and Wellbeing Board.

Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy

Joint Strategic Needs Assessment

A strategic plan, based on outcomes to set priorities and commissioning intentions

Builds the evidence base to understand needs and assets in Leeds

What should it do?• Set the outcomes which partners want to achieve• Set local priorities for joint action• Analyse the wider perspective of wellbeing • Identify areas for joint action between organisations• Identify priorities to influence commissioning within organisations• Have a particular focus on inequalities and the groups with the worst

health outcomes. • Be based on robust evidence, primarily from the Joint Strategic

Needs Assessment

Where does the Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy ‘fit’ amongst other policy and strategy?

There are a number of local and national strategic plans which direct what gets done in Leeds. The Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy should:• Link to other strategies• Build upon them by joining them up between organisations and other agendas• Influence the contents of other strategies

There have also been a number of changes in policy and legislation which should be considered in the new strategy.

Read the Executive Summary of the Joint Strategic Needs Assessment

Life expectancy for people in Leeds is 80.5 years. For males this is 78.6 years and for females this is 82.4 years.

21.3% of adults (aged 16+) smoke. 19.7% of Year 6 children are obese. Over 150,000 people in Leeds live in areas that are ranked amongst the most

deprived 10% nationally, and this represents over 20% of the city’s population. 33,205 (20.7%) children in Leeds are classed as living in poverty by the

government. In three Wards within the city, over 40% of children are classed as living in poverty.

Population trends suggest working age population supported by the council with moderate or severe learning disabilities will increase by around 7.5% between 2014 and 2020.

The birth rate has increased from 7,500 per annum in 2000/1 to around 10,000 per annum in the last 5 years.

In 2014 it is estimated that there are 8,700 people with dementia in Leeds. This is likely to increase to 12,000 in 15 years’ time.

The 2011 Census shows that over 125,000 people (16.8% of the population) feel they have a long-term illness.

What is the plan for producing the next Leeds Health and Wellbeing Strategy?

The JHWS 2016+ will be published after the March meeting of the Health and Wellbeing Board.

The Health and Wellbeing Board will lead on writing the new strategy. During this there will be 2 stages of engagement; an initial stage to seek early views to contribute to the writing of the strategy and second stage which

will seek comment on the contents of the strategy itself.

Seeking Early Views

The Health and Wellbeing Strategy is currently in its first stage of engagement. The Health and Wellbeing Board is therefore seeking initial views which can contribute to the strategy. It is interested in views around the following themes:

1. What views do you have on the content of the 2013-2015 Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy?

2. What views do you have on the priorities for people’s health and wellbeing in Leeds across all ages?

3. What views do you have on the priorities for what health and wellbeing services should be like in the future? What could we do more of / less of?

4. Any other comments which you would like the Leeds Health and Wellbeing Board to take note of as they write the next strategy.

Feedback on these views will be considered alongside all of the other consultation and engagement activities which are undertaken across health and social care in the city. The Health and Wellbeing Board will use these views to contribute to a first draft of a refreshed strategy. The Board will ask for more views on this draft strategy in January 2016.
