Inclusion health is an umbrella term used to describe people who are socially excluded, who typically experience multiple overlapping risk factors for poor health, such as poverty, violence and complex trauma, currently experiencing or at risk of homelessness, vulnerable migrants and refugees and those with substance and alcohol misuse difficulties. This programme is progressing the following workstreams with the overarching aim of improving access to and experience of services within the East Riding for inclusion groups:
- Understanding the strengths and needs of inclusion groups
- Workforce development
- Integration of support for inclusion groups
- Increasing strategic system partner buy-in
- Deep dive insight and co-production
Workshops with VCSE organisations have provided the following insight: VCSE insights into Inclusion Health – East Riding JSNA.
An East Riding Inclusion Health Needs Assessment was published in November 2024. You can read the report here: Inclusion Health – East Riding JSNA
Inclusion Health Champions
System partners have worked together to design an Inclusion Health Champions scheme. We are now recruiting new Champions, and we are looking for staff and volunteers from across the system (in all sectors across the East Riding), who are passionate about improving outcomes for people from Inclusion Health Groups.
