Have your say on North Yorkshire Council's draft Health and Wellbeing Strategy which sets out the priorities to improve people's health and reduce health inequalities.
Health and wellbeing boards were established by the Health and Social Care Act 2012, which requires councils to create a board for their area. The aim is to encourage improvement and working together for health and social care.
Health and wellbeing boards have a responsibility to produce a Joint Local Health and Wellbeing Strategy, which should set out priorities to improve people’s health and reduce health inequalities and explain how the board will do this.
North Yorkshire Health and Wellbeing Board has written a new Joint Local Health and Wellbeing Strategy for the county, which sets out proposed priorities for action, and ideas for working together to achieve them.
The council would like to know what you think about the draft strategy.
