The Strategic Director, Children’s Services submitted Document “A” which provided an update on the developing Bradford District Partnership prevention and early help, localities focused programme.  This district wide programme covered all activities relating to prevention and early help across all ages and all themes.

The Strategic Director, Children’s Services reported that in summary this programme sought to provide a district wide co-ordinated approach to prevention and early help, moving away from some current initiatives working in isolation of each other and communities. There were three particular areas that had been identified as helping to drive this ambition forward which included: 

·         A locality focused approach to ensure prevention and early help activities were accessible and tailored to each area.

·         Services working in a more joined up collaborative manner, saving duplication and maximising local knowledge.

·         All underpinned by enabling communities and individuals to use their own assets and strengths to determine their own futures.

The report reflected on the work achieved to date, the ambition for the future and the necessity for collaboration.

A presentation was provided to Members on the Bradford District and Craven Health and Care Partnerships, Primary Care Home Communities and Locality Hubs within Airedale, Wharfedale and Craven and Bradford.  The presentation also outlined the potential operating framework for the Partnerships, what it was trying to achieve, its principles, decision making and decision taking, governance and accountability and the partnership agreement.  The presentation also highlighted the early results and benefits of partnership working in communities.

Board Members made the following comments:

·         How were elected Members, members of the public and other interested partners involved in the work of the Prevention and Early Help Strategic Board and the Primary Care Home Communities and Locality Hubs.

·         The Prevention and Early Help Strategic Board needed to be universal, role of elected Members should be looked at; it was important to have the right membership which included all relevant people and interested partners.

·         It was important to look at whether the voluntary sector had capacity to undertake the work proposed.

·         Embraced the concept of localities but needed to embrace the early years focus and links to Adult Social Care and Children’s.

·         How would the support be flexible for different localities as different areas had different resources and needs; some areas required more   support than others.

·         How were the wider population being involved on the proposals; needed to reach out to the public in a number of different ways; important to have community involvement.

·         Work should be undertaken with the Strategic Director, Place on how best to engage the wider public.

·         Welcomed the initiative to work in localities.

·         Commended the results achieved in partnership working in communities in areas such as Adult Services.

·         Would be beneficial if the issues raised by the Board relating to Primary Care Home Communities and Locality Hubs was considered by the Integration and Change Board and then brought back to this Board.
