Governance and Accountability

The District Strategy has been developed by the Bradford and Airedale Wellbeing Board (WBB) Partners in Bradford District. The WBB is made up of organisations who work together to improve the lives of people in the district. Governance has been reviewed to be clear about the four thematic partnerships that feed into the HWBB in Bradford.

Each of these partnerships has a set of shared priorities and projects- those things that need many partners to achieve the change that the district needs. These are set out in a plan for each thematic partnership. These plans are separate documents and form “Chapters” of the District Strategy and set out in detail how we will work together to achieve our priorities. There are many things that organisations do as standalone activities that contribute to achieving the shared priorities, and all partners have agreed to use them as a frame in development their own plans. The District Strategy provides the frame for the things that partners do in their organisational plans, and also and sets out the things that we will do together.

The District Strategy will be owned and championed by the WBB who will receive annual updates on the full set of the priorities and outcomes. Every year each of the partnerships will report on their “Chapter” of the Plan to the WBB where there will be a more detailed discussion and scrutiny of the priorities in the plan and the wider work by the thematic partnership.
