Description
Sefton Public Health aims to protect and improve the health of Sefton's residents, reducing preventable diseases and the differences in life expectancy and healthy life expectancy between communities. The gap in life expectancy is as much as 11 years between some wards in Sefton and for vulnerable groups, such as those with mental health problems, the gap is as much as 20 years. Heart disease, lung cancer, liver disease and other cancers are the main causes of deaths in the most deprived communities in Sefton.
To address the health needs and health inequalities within the borough the 'Living well Sefton - Community' commission will need to be continually responsive to the day to day challenges that people face and which are often a barrier to them achieving positive behaviour change. It is intended that Living Well Sefton - Community will support people to maximise health opportunities by addressing the wider determinants of health and multiple lifestyle behaviours. The aim is to reduce the levels of preventable disease and future reliance on health and social care and for the people of Sefton to have a good quality of life for as long as possible.
The first phase of 'Living Well Sefton Community' (LWS) was commissioned in July 2016 as Sefton Council looked to contract with a Provider/s to develop and operate a flexible, innovative and integrated health improvement service that focused on prevention and early intervention, with delivery in the heart of communities. The community element contributes to the wider Living Well Sefton Service, which includes specialist areas; Smoke free Sefton and Active Sefton.
