Reform
Public Health and Local Government
The NHS North West approach to Public Health and Local Government reform has three
main objectives:
i) Work in partnership with Local Government to create the new architecture of Health and
Wellbeing Boards in each of 23 upper tier Local Authorities across the North West and
develop Local Government’s strategic leadership role.
ii) Lead the development of the new Public Health system across the North West
encompassing Local Government, Public Health England, GP Commissioning Consortia
and NHS Commissioning Board.
iii) Hold the ring on health and social care integration, personalisation and key policy
areas such as dementia and safeguarding for children and adults.
Agreement has been reached with Local Government to establish a Transition Alliance.
The Alliance will bring together Local Government and health leaders from across North
West to co-produce and deliver development programmes which enable transition to the
new system and integrate with commissioning consortia development.
