Keep it Local for Health and Wellbeing

About this event

Join us for the next Locality Health and Wellbeing Network meeting. We will be discussing:

• tackling health inequalities and the public health agenda: the role of community organisations. With speakers including Tony Dylak, CEO at Royds Bradford, and Merron Simpson, CEO at the NHS Alliance
• creating an action plan for a ‘community health service’ – how do we bridge the gap between clinical and community perspectives? With practical discussions on tackling barriers with contributions from local government, clinical and community perspectives
• how local political leadership in transforming commissioning can drive local-systems change and improve health and wellbeing outcomes. Local government perspectives from Locality’s Keep it Local campaign.

This event is open to Locality members, as well as commissioners, councillors and health practitioners. Please invite colleagues who would be interested to attend.
