Public engagement activity regarding the STP plan took place during 2017. Following consideration of the plan in June 2017, there has been regular reporting to the health and wellbeing board on integration and transformation of the health and care system to ensure that the plan and ensuing developments are aligned with the health and wellbeing strategy, and will support improved health and wellbeing for the people of Herefordshire.

Health and care partners are participating in workshops and meetings alongside members of the health and wellbeing board collectively as system leaders to lay the foundations for this work.
