Spotlight on Neighbourhood Health

VODG members are invited to this session exploring the latest development on the neighbourhood health roll out, ways in which VCFSE organisations are already delivering this agenda and improvements needed to ensure disabled people, carers and families are central to neighbourhood health initiatives.

This session, which VODG is organising and facilitating with colleagues at NDTI, will be an opportunity for members to consider developments relating to the Government's Neighbourhood Health roll out, a key feature of the Ten-Year Health Plan for England published last year.

The session will explore what organisations working with and for disabled people need to do to ensure that the new Neighbourhood Health arrangements work best for disabled people, carers and families, including the improvement of access to care and support, health outcomes and social inclusion.

It will also consider what if any actions are required by statutory health and care systems to enable the VCFSE disability sector to play a full part in the delivery of neighbourhood health.

We hope to convey the conclusions and any recommendations for action from the session to colleagues at the Department of Health and Social Care, other relevant government departments and system leaders.
