Health & Wellbeing Forum
The purpose of the Health & Well Being Forum is to bring together voluntary and community groups and to enable the groups to have a ‘voice’ in the delivery of service. To this end we work with the North Somerset Primary Care Trust and North Somerset Health & Well Being Partnership where we have a voluntary sector representative.
Our role is
- To facilitate and support the development and involvement of the adult and social care voluntary and community sector in North Somerset.
- To provide information to the adult and social care voluntary and community sector on national, regional and local developments in social care policies and services.
- To facilitate consultation and information sharing with the adult and social care voluntary and community sector, on behalf of the statutory sector.
- To provide advice to adult and social care groups on how to become involved with strategic planning around current issues.
- To undertake elections of representatives of the adult and social care voluntary and community sector to the North Somerset Health and Well-Being Partnership and to support the elected representatives.
