Description
The Healthy Knowsley Service model aims to encourage and support people to access healthy living
opportunities, whether they are available independently in the local community or are directly commissioned by
Knowsley Council or other responsible authorities, such as Knowsley Clinical Commissioning Group.
National and local research indicates that those most affected by health inequalities are likely to have multiple
unhealthy lifestyle behaviours. Therefore, these behaviours should be supported in an integrated manner to
2 / 4
offer a personalised approach. The development and design of the model has been underpinned by the values
and principles listed below, which will continue to be central throughout the implementation of the model:
• Choice.
• Partnership working.
• Cost effective.
• Needs led.
• Targeted.
• Joined up.
• Shared Information (with appropriate governance).
• Aims and outcome focused.
• High quality.
• Shared goals for providers.
• Diversity leading to new ways of engaging.
• Transparent.
• Seamless transition between services/interventions.
• Social Value.
Through the 'Better Together' way of working the Council aims to support community health development and
enable community organisations to become viable and sustainable deliverers of services in their own right.
It is envisaged that any contractor delivering the Healthy Knowsley Service will identify ways to involve local
community groups in a way that may improve their viability and sustainability.
