(TO FOLLOW)

Minutes:

RECEIVED the report of Dr Glenn Stewart, Assistant Director of Public Health, sent to follow.

 

NOTED

Dr Glenn Stewart introduced the report, highlighting the following:

?  At the recent Health and Wellbeing Board development session, it had been requested to put together an Enfield Healthy Weight Partnership to work on the issue, and this report set out the partnership’s proposed terms of reference.

?  Meetings were proposed to be held quarterly.

?  The partnership would report to the Health and Wellbeing Board.

 

IN RESPONSE comments and questions were received, including:

1.    No time limit had been set for the partnership, but the aim was for people to work together to make a strategic plan with ongoing implementation. The first meeting would agree a timeline and actionable objectives.

2.    The end to end pathway had been discussed and would be added to the document.

3.    Membership of the Healthy Weight Partnership was agreed but noted that other groups including the Youth Parliament should also be consulted. It was noted that the strategy would not focus on young people in particular as everyone was affected by an obesogenic environment.

 

AGREED that the Health and Wellbeing Board agreed the recommended approach to setting up the Enfield Healthy Weight Partnership.
