Swindon ‘Glass of Sorrow’

Is this all gloom and doom or new opportunities?

Where do the answers lie?• Council and wider Public Sector partners?• Voluntary Sector?• Communities?• Private sector?

Various Change Programmes eg:• Strengthening Families• Streetsmart• Economy

We have a range of supporting multi-agency infrastructure eg….

• One Swindon Board• Health & Well-Being Board• Community Safety Partnerships• Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG)• Joint Commissioning Boards• Safeguarding Boards/Children’s Trust • Many others….etc etc

Seek to respond to demand

Offer ‘our’ solutions Shaped to optimise funds

Our ‘organisation’ is a significant determinant of services provided. Corporate agenda is at the heart of what we do

Seek to influence and shape demand

Create solutions together shaped to optimise outcomes

Services are determined by a rich body of evidence, data and insight.Locality is at the heart of what we do

Solutions delivered through multiple) functions, in silos. Respond to presenting issues…. focus on issue resolution

Join up at Corporate plan level

Solutions coordinated in Locality -Respond to insights based on the ‘whole picture’ balanced investment in prevention as well as issue resolution

Creates dependency

We set priorities and deliver services and support

Communities influence priorities, contribute to delivery and share responsibility for outcomes

Builds capability and capacity

Join up between locality and corporate level – decision is taken at the most appropriate level

Traditional Rhythm In the Future

Moving Forward..
