We are currently collating information in relation to identified gaps in provision from service providers points of view based on a true identified need, it is vital that this information is collated early doors.
At this stage, it is not a promise of money – But this information will be very helpful for the work of the task group, who will be looking at gaps and how to address, and setting the criteria in preparation for Area Budget allocation 2020- 2021,it would help for any potential Neighbourhood Budget requests, future Holiday Hunger funding, or any other sources of funding that may be coming our way. We will have more details in relation to funding available at a later date!.
In the meantime – It really is vital that we know what gaps are out there in our 4 Together Partnership area to ensure that we are meeting an identified need within our communities.
If you could take the time to read through our remit below– and let us know if you have already identified a gap from a service providers point of view in relation to:-
Health and wellbeing, the quality of people’s lives, the things that can help support positive physical and mental health – such as the resources and opportunities for people to live a full life no matter what their circumstances, helping to assist to prevent illness, recover and bounce back from illness and any other problems-
Creating opportunities and environments for Children young people & families, and or older people to be Happier, Healthier & to thrive (feeling good about life and yourself)
what gaps do you feel there are/ or what needs more support / or made better for Children Young People & Families, and or Older People to be Happier, Healthier & to thrive?
We do not need full project ideas at this stage please, you can either fill in the questionnaire or just drop us a line – but it is important that you let us know at this early stage if you already have identified gaps in provision, and any plans you may have to try to address, just a brief sentence will suffice for now!.
If you as a service provider /group have findings from recent consultation and you would like us to include it in the work of the task group please let us know!
Feel free to pass this email on to other groups that you may feel could contribute with information from their prospective as a service provider in the 4 Together area regarding gaps in provision!
If you could respond back to me paula.nixon@durham.gov.uk by 21 January please, that would be great!
