CCBs (Community Care Briefings)

Do you know what statutory authorities in North Yorkshire are planning and doing about community care, health and related issues? Are you aware of the current local issues in services for children and families, older people, people with physical disabilities, people with sensory impairments, people with learning disabilities, people with mental health needs, and carers?

Community Care Briefings is a service provided by the Forum free to local voluntary and community organisations only.

Many Briefings are a summary of the issues to be considered at meetings of the key statutory agencies in North Yorkshire responsible for planning and delivering community care, health and related services. These Briefings are normally circulated a day or two before the relevant meeting and include details of the voluntary and community sector representatives at the meeting, whom you can contact for further information or to ensure that they are aware of your organisation's views.

Other Briefings contain summaries of Department of Health White Papers and similar documents within a few days of their publication by the Government.
