To consider a report regarding Strategy into Action (15 mins)

The Board considered the Strategy into Action report.

During the discussion of this item, the following points were made:

·         Graham Ebers outlined the spotlight action taken by the Sports and Leisure team in relation to the key priority of social isolation.

·         Board members were informed of the pilot scheme Project Joy.

·         The Board noted some of the key indicators and were reminded that the action plan was a working document.  A target for 2021 for each indicator had been identified.  Using trend analysis a more meaningful projection could then be created.

·         Councillor Margetts asked about the indicators relating to the offering and take up of NHS Health Checks, which were both showing as red.  Carol-Anne Bidwell explained that this was a mandated service.  In addition to being offered by GPs this service had also been offered by Places for Leisure since June.  A quality assurance on the delivery of health checks would be built up.

·         Katie Summers was of the view that hospital admissions due to falls should be included.  She also wanted to see information on the number of assisted bin collections.

·         Graham Ebers emphasised that it was vital that the partnerships such as the Children and Young People’s Partnership, buy into the Strategy into Action process.

RESOLVED:  That

1)         the revised set of approximately 20 rationalised basket of indicators be agreed;

2)         it be agreed to identify any additional indicators that may be available in respective organisations and utilised to assist with monitoring of performance.

3)         the spotlight action case study be noted.
