The Health & Wellbeing Board plans to improve people’s health and ensure equal access to services.
Ian Jones (Volunteer Cornwall) is currently the voluntary sector representative.
In the near future, it is expected this board will evolve into a new statutory Health & Wellbeing Board, as required by the Government’s new approach to health services and public health.
Carolyn Rule, Chairman of the Shadow Health and Wellbeing Board has distributed a letter inviting those involved in the sector to participate in the Stakeholder Advisory Forum.
The role of the forum will be to coordinate a range of inputs from stakeholders and manage flow of information through existing networks and engagement channels and new channels where appropriate.
The first meeting of the group will take place on 30th April at 10am. If you would like to attend, please confirm to Michelle Pearce mipearce@cornwall.gov.uk by 9th April.
The letter from Carolyn Rule can be viewed below.
