Decision details

The Cabinet Member for Health and Communities:

1)    Approved the change of the Derbyshire Dales Health and Wellbeing Partnership funding recipient to Derbyshire Dales CVS from Derbyshire Dales District Council as previously agreed by Cabinet with effect from 1st April 2024.

2)    Agreed that £0.046m is transferred to Derbyshire Dales CVS as part of the main locality agreement for 2024-2025 to be spent within the 2024-2025 financial year.

The Public Health Locality Programme contributes to improving health, wellness and reducing health inequalities at a local level. The eight Health and Wellbeing Partnerships facilitate the involvement of local partners and communities using a collaborative approach in the design and delivery to improve local health outcomes.

The change to recipient will mean the Derbyshire Dales Health and Wellbeing Partnership can receive the devolved funding and implement their locally agreed Community activities to improve health and wellbeing for the local population. 

Alternative option: Do not approve a change to recipient within the Derbyshire Dales Health and Wellbeing Partnership.

This is not a preferred option. The funding would not be directly devolved to the Derbyshire Dales Health and Wellbeing Partnership and would need to be held by Public Health, and each item of spend would need to come to the Cabinet Member for approval creating considerable delays to decision on individual health projects, administration, and resources, and ultimately delaying health improvements within the Derbyshire Dales region.
