The 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 Health and Wellbeing Board structure is fit for purpose and is financially sustainable. The Health and Wellbeing Board plays a significant systems leadership role in delivering the required improvements and its governance arrangements should enable this role to be undertaken effectively. Therefore a review of its structure and recommendations has been made.
