Issue details

The BCF is a programme spanning both the NHS and local government to improve the lives of some of the most vulnerable people in our society, placing them at the centre of their care and support, and providing then with ‘wrap around’, fully integrated health and social care, resulting in an improved experience and better quality of life. This project will facilitate a more centralised focus on tackling the inequalities, disadvantage and racism that exists within the borough. The I&FF will be key to delivering this change, demonstrating the ongoing commitment to refining processes and strengthening collective understanding of community needs, so that they can be reflected in future work and improve the health and wellbeing of our residents across the borough, and will thus contributing to Better Care Fund metrics.
