Future of Prevention Programme Interim Report

A cross-council proactive prevention initiative THE PROGRAMME WILL BE DEFINING HOW A CROSS-COUNCIL PROACTIVE PREVENTION INITIATIVE COULD BE DELIVERED Many of the authorities participating in the programme are keen to co-design and take part in a cross-council large-scale proactive prevention initiative. The purpose of this initiative will be to help to develop the evidence base for prevention, and to put the delivery model developed through the programme into practice. It will demonstrate to central government the quantifiable benefits that can be achieved through proactive prevention, as well as the enablers that are required to help achieve these benefits at a national scale. The next Community of Practice session in January 2025 will explore how the delivery model and evidence frameworks could be applied to specific use cases in a cross- council proactive prevention initiative. Use cases that have been suggested to date include falls prevention, carer breakdown prevention, and homelessness prevention. The Community of Practice will seek to define how a cross-council proactive prevention initiative could work in practice, including answering questions such as: • Would all participating authorities need to select the same use case or will multiple use cases be selected? • Will any additional resources be available to authorities taking part in the initiative? • What timescales are realistic for the delivery of the initiative? A proposed approach for the cross-council initiative will be included in the Future of Prevention programme final report.
