OUR PRIORITIES
There are five priorities for action that we commit to in our Civic Agreement. They align with the priorities of our shared Luton 2040 Vision: A Place to Thrive.
We will do this by developing partnerships for excellence in public health research and public health outcomes in Luton:
PRIORITY 1
• Creating a systematic process of transferring and applying relevant research that impacts on public health service delivery and intervention by developing evaluation expertise to understand what works, and research commissioning structures that are aligned to enhance the local knowledge base.
Improving population wellbeing and tackling health inequalities to enable everyone to have a good quality of life and reach their full potential.
• Taking a system-change approach together to address health and wellbeing inequalities in Luton, including acting collaboratively on the ‘Health Equity Town’ recommendations by Sir Michael Marmot.
• Working collaboratively on evidence-led, informative and impactful campaigns to improve key areas of health and wellbeing currently challenging Luton, namely healthy eating, active travel, physical activity, mental wellbeing, smoking, alcohol and sexual health.
