8. Option 1: No Change Partnership Forum Salford Place Board Partnership Executive Health & Wellbeing Board Community Safety Partnership Children & Young People ’ s Trust Think Skills & Work Think City Neighbourhood Arrangements Adult Safeguarding Board Strategic Housing Partnership Safeguarding Children Board

9. Option 2: Existing Partnership takes the Lead Eg, Health and Wellbeing Board Strengths: Bodies are already in existence. Reduces the number of meetings and some duplication. Legal entities with some statutory reporting duties already in place. Weaknesses: Over burden the partnership with issues outside their remit. Membership will need to be reviewed to ensure there is a city wide perspective. Community and business sector engagement will need to be improved. Could result in overly complex arrangements, this is a national concern for the evolving Health and Wellbeing Boards.
