Mental Health and Wellbeing Leadership Board: mental health and wellbeing delivery plan and workforce action plan

5. Discussion at Leadership Board meeting on 30 April

We would like to gather feedback across the Leadership Board membership, capitalising on the breadth of expertise, experience and networks. There will be dedicated time at the Board’s meeting on 30 April to discuss potential content for the refreshed Plan, and to help facilitate this discussion, Board members are asked to bring feedback and suggestions on the following questions:

• Emerging Scottish Government Frameworks (Population Health, Strategic Renewal) seek to take a public health approach to prevention, and shift the balance of care. What action could/should be taken within the revised Delivery Plan to support this work?
• Given the current context, where else should specific focus be placed in the next iteration of the Delivery Plan to best support progress towards the Strategy’s vision?
• Where are the gaps or challenges in current mental health and wellbeing support, and what feedback have you collected from your networks on areas that need improvement? Are there barriers that need to be removed in order to achieve the outcomes we want?
• Are there any emerging policy ideas or collaborative opportunities that have been identified through discussions with your networks that should be considered, and which could enhance the impact of the revised Plan?

The information gathered through this discussion at the Leadership Board meeting will help lay the foundations for strategic themes and potential actions for the refreshed Plan.
