Consultation

Health and Wellbeing County Press Advert

Public services on the Island are seeking views on their plans to make the Island a healthier, safer, wealthier and more environmentally-friendly place.

The vision of bodies including the police, Isle of Wight NHS, Isle of Wight Clinical Commissioning Group and the Isle of Wight Council is called the Health and Wellbeing Strategy which will be a blueprint determining the priorities which all organisations will work towards between 2013-16.

The strategy addresses many of the findings of a major ongoing study called the Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) which has highlighted a number of areas of concern.

The strategy focuses on five main areas:

  • Ensuring children and young people have the best possible start in life.
  • Helping and supporting people prepare for old age and to manage long-term health conditions and disabilities.
  • Enabling people to make health choices for healthy lifestyles.
  • Building and sustaining economic growth and supporting employment opportunities.
  • Making the Island a better place to live and to visit.

Please take the time to read the strategy and then share your views via the consultation.
