Tendring Community Assets Full Final Report

2 Foreword The North East Essex Health and Wellbeing Alliance is a collaboration of organisations dedicated to improving the health and wellbeing of our local populations in Colchester and Tendring. We are all committed to working together in a more joined up way in the best interests of the people we serve. We formed in early 2018 with the following membership: Colchester Hospital, North East Essex CCG, ACE, GP Primary Choice, Essex Partnership University Trust, East of England Ambulance Service, Essex County Council, Colchester Borough Council, Tendring District Council, St Helena, CVS Tendring and Community 360. We know that to achieve our goals we need to do things differently. That includes a much greater focus on prevention and reducing inequalities in our communities. To do this we need to have broad partnerships beyond the NHS and local authorities. This report, commissioned by the Alliance, is a sign of our commitment to work with our communities, recognising existing assets, and actively seeking to support community and voluntary groups upon whom so many rely for their continuing health and wellbeing. Thank you to colleagues in CVS Tendring and Tendring District Council for coordinating this project, and to everyone who generously gave of their time to inform this powerful and important report. Mark Jarman-Howe Chief Executive, St Helena Chair of the North East Essex Health and Wellbeing Alliance
