Delivering Healthy Futures
11 Given the focus on broad determinants of population health as they relate to the East of England,
three groups of delivery processes should contribute substantively to advancing Healthy Futures.
These relate to:
• Regional priorities set out in the Integrated Regional Strategy and in other ‘premier league’
regional strategies
• National priorities for population health set out in Choosing Health
• Local and sub-regional priorities, particularly those defined by Local Strategic Partnerships (LSPs)
and being advanced – across much of the Region – through Local Area Agreements, and those
services being influenced through Investing in Communities (IiC) partnership programmes.
12 In order to facilitate and inform these processes, a number of Actions have been defined in response
to each Strategic Priority; these Actions – which will be subject to on-going development and review
– are set out in Chapters 6-8.
13 For the most part, the Actions are modest in scale and scope: in keeping with the purposes of Healthy
Futures, they are intended to support and influence other delivery processes, not replicate or replace
them. Hence the Actions include, for example, the preparation of guidance and training materials, and
the gathering and dissemination of data and intelligence. On their own, these will not deliver the Vision
set out in Healthy Futures. But by influencing and supporting the three groups of processes set out
above, significant progress ought to be possible.
14 Progress on delivering these Actions – and on achieving the overall Vision – will be reviewed regularly
by EERA’s Health and Social Inclusion Panel.
