The Director of Public Health presented her report which set out how the response to the pandemic, changes to NHS, the formation of the Place Based Partnership Board and the Health and Wellbeing Strategy could provide opportunities for positive local action to reduce the health inequalities which the pandemic had revealed. The report detailed the framework and actions which would enable the Place Based Partnership to have a clear focus on tackling the inequalities.

 

Resolved: That

(1)   the strong focus on reducing health inequalities within the NHS both nationally and locally be noted;

(2)   the proposed approaches to reduce health inequalities being adopted by the Wirral Place Based Partnership be supported.
