Presentation notes and slides

Description

'Healthy Communities = Healthy Lives'

A unique multi disciplinary conference / summit to enable health, social care, housing providers and commissioners to share experience and information, hear about innovative joined up solutions, understand more about the essential contribution that housing makes to health and wellbeing and break down perceived barriers in order to work together more effectively to create better outcomes for the people of Gloucestershire

This event will also launch the Gloucester Affordable Housing Landlords' forum document - "Putting health back into Housing" - A copy of this report will be provided for all delegates on the day

The unprecedented external operating environment that all the above professionals are now working in means that more than ever before it is essential to breakdown "silos", work collaboratively and gain insight into how sharing budgets and creating innovative early interventions add value to the health and social care agenda to relieve acute expenditure which is not only more costly to the public purse but, of greater concern, more costly to lives.
