Minutes:

The Cabinet considered the report of the Director of Social Care and Health which provided details of the Children and Young People`s Emotional Health and Wellbeing Strategy, and an event held on the 14 July 2016 facilitated by Sefton Young Advisors which has been used to help shape the Strategy.

 

Decision Made:

 

That the Children and Young People`s Emotional Health and Wellbeing Strategy be approved.

 

Reasons for Decision:

 

Communities of Sefton face increasing health inequalities and poor health and wellbeing outcomes. In order to ensure that these outcomes are improved, particularly for the most vulnerable people, the Council needs to ensure that the priorities of the Health and Wellbeing Strategy and our Children and Young People`s Plan which includes Mental Health are fit for purpose / financially sustainable. The strategic plan plays and important role in helping to deliver the required improvements.
