The NHS 10 Year Health Plan
The NHS 10 Year Health Plan sets the long‑term direction for a shift towards prevention, neighbourhood health and stronger community partnership. The SEL VCSE Strategic Alliance works with the SEL ICB to help turn this ambition into reality locally, while advocating and constructively challenging on behalf of the VCSE sector to ensure community capacity is recognised, resourced and embedded.
Setting the next steps for neighbourhood health
A new report from PPL, produced with the NHS Alliance, sets out how neighbourhood health can move from ambition to practical delivery across England. We strongly welcome its clear recognition of the VCSE sector as a central partner in leadership, coordination and delivery – and its calls for meaningful partnership, equitable data sharing and multi‑year funding.
