Agenda item

8.1

The report, which provided an update on the progress of Sheffield’s multi-agency Carers Delivery Plan (2022-2025), was presented by Janet Kerr (Operations Director, Adult Care, Sheffield City Council).

8.2

It was noted that there was a discrepancy in the recommendations on pages 1 and 10 of the report, so the Chair advised that the question of whether to sign the Young Carers Covenant, should be considered on another occasion.

8.3

RESOLVED: That the Sheffield Health and Wellbeing Board:

(a)  Recognises the positive progress made on the Carers Delivery Plan (2022-2025).

(b)  States its commitment to reducing health inequalities for people who are unpaid carers across the city, so they feel recognised, valued, and supported; and

(c)  Requests updates on the Carers Delivery Plan and subsequent carer policies every 12 months to provide assurance and leadership on reducing health inequalities for people who are unpaid carers.
