“Hope, Control & Choice” Strategy Implementation Countywide Mental Health Strategy Implementation Group: Multi-Agency Representation Principles of Co-Production & Partnership Mental Health Strategy Delivery Plan Public Mental Health & Prevention Partnership Group Suggestions on Locality Implementation New Group? Via CCT? There is a countywide governance group for the implementation of the strategy, and it is anticipated that locality activity will feed into this, and also that the countywide group will steer locality activity (feed up & down). In this area, there are two strategies, and you will hear from Sasha Bhat shortly, so there is a requirement for us to deliver the priorities & achieve the outcomes from both strategies. Many of you will be aware of the great work of the Craven Mental Health & Wellbeing Forum in coordinating some of this work in Craven. Following the decision to end the Forum, there is an opportunity to consider how we will implement the strategies in this locality going forwards. Because CCT has great and growing representation from people and organisations across Craven, we would like to see this become part of this partnership. We will be asking for further feedback on this through the partnerships’ broad network.

Dementia Represented at BAWC Health Care & Housing Network Relationships Regular updates & sharing of implementation plans Craven Communities Together Collaborative Approach Since coming into post at the beginning of the year as Locality Commissioners, we identify that a large part of our role is around understanding our community assets and services, and establishing good relationships with all people and organisations in our communities. We recognise that the landscape, and often services are different to the rest of North Yorkshire, and it is therefore important, and we are working hard, to create relationships with the CCG and have Craven representation at BAWC Groups, championing the needs of the locality.
