(Cabinet Decision)
Minutes:
The Assistant Director, Housing and Built Environment, presented a report which updated members on the delivery of the council-led projects within the NHS Hastings and Rother Clinical Commissioning Group’s (CCG) Healthy Hastings and Rother (HHR) programme 2015/16 and 2016/17. The report also sought approval for the enhanced programme of council-led projects funded from the CCG’s HHR programme in 2017/18, 2018/19 and 2019/20.
Richard Watson, Programme Manager for the CCG, attended the meeting. He explained that the CCG acknowledged the high levels of deprivation and health inequality in some parts of the Hastings and Rother. The programme had been designed to address the key thematic areas of preventing ill health, supporting people experiencing ill health, health and wellbeing centres and healthy housing – people and places. He added that the CCG valued the opportunity to work in partnership with partners across the statutory and community sector to deliver the programme.
CCG funding of £1.711 million had been allocated over this financial year and the two subsequent financial years until 31 March 2020. The funding had been allocated to support a variety of initiatives to address domestic violence, adult learning, healthy homes and rough sleeping.
The report also provided an update on projects from the 2015/16 and 2016/17. It was noted that some of the projects had been delayed, and would therefore be extended into subsequent programme.
Cabinet thanked all those involved in supporting the programme.
