The strategy and action plan are centred around three main approaches:
- prevention - prevent people from becoming unwell or experiencing poor health and wellbeing
- early intervention - support people to identify and manage health and wellbeing problems as early as possible. Ensure sure support is in the right place to address those problems
- thriving communities - focus on the wider factors and influences on health, and work with partners to support communities to thrive
Within these approaches, we will address the following priority themes:
- mental health and wellbeing,
- physical activity
- diet and nutrition
- tobacco use
- alcohol use
- substance use
- other factors that may contribute to health
The strategy and action plan address these themes across all areas of life, from children and young people, to adults and older people.
