The Felixstowe Peninsula Community Partnership have re-set the priorities based on new data that has become available. It is clear to see the impact of the pandemic and rising cost of living is having on the residents of Felixstowe Peninsula, with multiple pockets of deprivation and knock on effects to people’s health and wellbeing.
Following a workshop session, analysing the change in statistics since 2019, the partnership has decided upon these 3 priorities;
- Supporting the community through the rising cost of living and fuel crisis.
- Improving the physical health and wellbeing of primary school children.
- Increase physical and social activity in adults.
Task and finish groups for each are being set up to discuss what current provision exists and identify gaps which may be appropriate for the Community Partnership to focus on.
