That the Slough Wellbeing Board recommendation to Council to approve the Slough Joint Wellbeing Strategy 2016-2020 be endorsed.

The Cabinet considered the refreshed Slough Joint Wellbeing Strategy 2016-2020.  The current strategy was due to expire in 2016 and it was a statutory responsibility for Health & Wellbeing Boards to publish a new Joint Wellbeing Strategy.  The Slough Wellbeing Board had undertaken an extensive programme of activity to review and refresh and strategy and priorities and would be recommending the document to full Council on 27^th September 2016, as at Appendix A to the report.  The Cabinet was asked to consider the strategy and endorse the SWB recommendation.

The strategy included four high level priorities which partners had agreed they could work together on to maximise impact.  The partnership had recently undertaken a review to improve its effectiveness in delivering the strategy.  Commissioners welcomed the clear vision and direction that the new strategy set for the Council and partners and agreed to endorse the recommendation to Council that the strategy be approved.

Resolved –  That the Slough Wellbeing Board recommendation to Council to approve the Slough Joint Wellbeing Strategy 2016-2020 be endorsed.
