Longer, healthier lives for all

Since April 2013, the Dudley Health & Wellbeing Board (HWBB) has been responsible for the health and wellbeing of all residents in Dudley borough.

Using local evidence, it works to help identify the needs of local residents, improve efficiency, secure better care to improve health and wellbeing as well as tackle health inequalities across the borough. Bitesize guide to Dudley Health & Wellbeing Board

The board brings together Dudley Council, Dudley Clinical Commissioning Group, Healthwatch Dudley, the NHS Commissioning Board and partners in the voluntary and community sectors.

It has developed a Health and Wellbeing Strategy setting out the priorities the board has agreed to tackle to improve the health and wellbeing of people living and working in Dudley. 

The Health and Wellbeing Board has developed/is developing partnerships to deliver its overall aims:

• Children and Young People's Alliance
• Adults Alliance (this partnership is still in development)

 

These priorities and the future planning of services across the borough are determined from evidence collated in the borough’s Joint Strategic Needs Assessment. See below.
