West Yorkshire Health and Care Partnership Board will meet in public on Tuesday 1 April 2025 at 1:30pm. The Partnership Board meets in public every three months. The agenda, papers, and link to watch the meeting live can be accessed at: www.wypartnership.co.uk/meetings/partnershipboard/papers
The meeting will be held in the Council Chamber at Huddersfield Town Hall and will also be livestreamed from the Partnership website, with a recording available after the meeting.
The Partnership Board further strengthens joint working arrangements between the NHS, councils, care providers, hospices, Healthwatch, the voluntary, community and social enterprise sector. Together, the partnership improves health and care of all people living across the area.
The Board is an important group for the partnership, which covers Bradford District and Craven, Calderdale, Kirklees, Leeds, and Wakefield District. It brings together elected members, executive and non-executives in one decision making process. Its work aligns to the NHS West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board.
Board members will consider:
- an update from the Partnership’s CEO lead;
- our ambition to increase the years of life that people live in good health in West Yorkshire;
- our ambition to reduce suicide by 10% across West Yorkshire; and
- an update on the Health and Work Plan and programmes.
Working alongside communities, the Partnership Board aims to give people their best start in life with support to stay healthy and live longer. Many factors determine whether someone leads a long and healthy life, including good housing, access to green space, and building an inclusive economy that creates more good jobs, reduces health inequalities, and promotes opportunity for all. These important factors are at the heart of the Partnership Board.
