Agenda item

9.1

The report which summarised the main points of learning from the Board workshops on Mental Health and Children and Young People, was presented by Greg Fell  (Director of Public Health, Sheffield City Council), who asked Members to let him know if they felt that the content and the style of the meeting had worked as he had concerns over the amount of work involved in organising the event given it had not been well attended.

The Chair underlined that organisations should send a deputy if their representative was unable to attend.

9.2

Members discussed the following points:

·       A feeling that there was a disconnect between lived experience and services in discussions that wasn’t satisfactory;

·       It was valuable to have thinking and discussion time and the workshops hadn’t quite got the balance right in this respect;

·       Concern that the sessions hadn’t clearly answered the “so what”? question;

·       A suggestion that if the Board wanted to run future examples of these sessions they might need a task and finish group to support the work and these could be established through the HCP Delivery Groups.

9.3

RESOLVED: that Sheffield Health and Wellbeing board notes the paper and the progress of the work.
