The Well Together programme is funded by the Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and Berkshire West Integrated Care Board (BOB ICB).
Its primary aim is to reduce health inequalities by supporting community-led health and wellbeing initiatives in areas of greatest need.
The programme empowers communities by building local capacity through grants and embedded roles to enable grassroots health activities.
- It targets inequalities by focusing on priority wards identified through the community insight profile programme
- It aligns with the Core20PLUS5 framework and strengthens partnerships
- Collaborative working with voluntary organisations, local authorities and health partners deliver sustainable change.
