Health and well being schedule
The health and wellbeing schedule outlines the agreed contribution of North Tyneside Council to joint targets for health improvement and is a landmark in partnership working between the Council and North Tyneside Primary Care Trust (PCT). North Tyneside Council is committed to working with partners to improve health and reduce health inequalities.
The new performance framework, set out in the Local Government White Paper ‘Stronger and Prosperous Communities’, and the increased focus on shared targets, reflecting a shared sustainable community strategy and joint strategic needs assessment, reinforce the benefits of a partnership approach to the health and wellbeing of our communities. The local area agreement and sustainable community strategy identify medium term priorities for health improvement. A key component of the health and wellbeing schedule is the aim to reduce by 10% inequalities in life expectancy between the borough and England average by 2010. This version of the schedule is the latest draft.
