The Solihull Partnership
The Solihull Partnership is the Borough's Local Strategic Partnership which includes local communities and their elected representatives working with public, private, voluntary and community sector organisations to improve outcomes for all people in Solihull.
The Partnership Vision:
Solihull in 2018: where everyone has an equal chance to be healthier, happier, safer, and more prosperous. This vision recognises the significant inequalities gap experienced by people who live in Solihull and partnership priorities are targeted at narrowing the inequalities gap.
Responsibilities:
The Partnership has a number of responsibilities including:
- Promoting working in partnership, where our cooperation adds value to the way services are commissioned and delivered in Solihull and ensures achievements through partnership working.
- Promoting the strategic vision for Solihull as well as securing partners commitment and action to deliver this vision.
- Agreeing the priority outcome areas partners will work collaboratively on to narrow the inequalities gap within the Borough.
The Partnership operates within a commissioning environment to secure value added through working together to commission and deliver services in Solihull. The Partnership deploys three key approaches to support this purpose:
a) Planning and Commissioning, against the vision for Solihull and the agreed priority outcomes where a multi-agency approach will be more effective than single agency;
b) Stakeholder Involvement, to inform and involve the public ad other stakeholders at every stage of Partnership business, and develop shared and inclusive responsibility in delivering the vision for Solihull and the agreed priority outcomes;
c) Performance Management to provide support and challenge against the priority outcomes securing the most effective use of resources to deliver against priorities and narrow the inequalities gap.
