Wokingham Borough Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment 2025
The board was scheduled to receive the Wokingham Borough Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment 2025. Pharmaceutical Needs Assessments (PNAs) are needs assessments undertaken by local authorities to understand the pharmaceutical needs of their population. They are used to inform commissioning decisions about pharmaceutical services in the area.
Eat Well, Be Active Needs Assessment
The Eat Well, Be Active Needs Assessment was scheduled to be discussed. This assessment likely focuses on the eating habits and physical activity levels of the Wokingham Borough population, and identifies areas where improvements can be made to promote healthier lifestyles.
Helping Early Strategy
The Helping Early Strategy was up for discussion at the meeting. The agenda did not elaborate on what the Helping Early Strategy entails.
Wokingham Borough Health and Wellbeing Board Annual Report 2024/25
The board was scheduled to consider its annual report for the 2024/25 municipal year. The annual report likely provides an overview of the board's activities and achievements over the past year, as well as highlighting key challenges and priorities for the future.
ICB Briefing
The board was scheduled to receive a briefing from the BOB ICB. The BOB ICB (Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and Berkshire West Integrated Care Board) is the integrated care board for the region, and is responsible for planning and delivering health and care services.
