The offer from a member to visit the Cleobury Farmers’ Market on 16th November with a community consultation was welcomed and officers confirmed they would attend. Meanwhile it was highlighted that Border consultations were equally important to include.
There was some criticism about the design of the on-line survey and it not being user-friendly, which was noted.
It was agreed that the issue of Local Maternity S ervices needed to be included as a separate workstream.
In response to a question about what ‘Prevention workstream’ was, it was clarified that this was the same as ‘Fit & Well’; it would be adjusted.
The VCSA highlighted that there was unease generally within the voluntary sector about the renewal of CCG grant funding which ended on 31 March 2018; volunteer staff were anxious that contracts would not be renewed and it was feared that staff would leave due to uncertaintly. It was confirmed that letters about the future grant framework had recently been sent out and hopefully this would help allay any fears. The offer of providing a patient presentation in conjunction with the voluntary sector was welcomed by the Board.
Meanwhile it was requested that the Local Authority and the CCG both needed to make their intentions clear.
The Head of Adult Services was aware of financial pressures on everyone and spoke about the importance of early intervention and prevention, adding that a conversation was being undertaken with the Health and Social Care Forum.
