Through personalised care Shropshire Telford & Wrekin ICS is positioning Creative Health as an integral approach to addressing two health priorities for children and young people: reducing secondary care admissions for children with an exacerbation of asthma and providing alternative support for mental wellbeing for children who are waiting to access NHS mental health services. A range of activities have been commissioned providing choice to young people and their families as a way of supporting their wellbeing, addressing the outcomes necessary to support the improvement of their lived health experiences, and reducing health inequalities. Potential providers were asked to coproduce their offer with children and young people, and a separate coproduction group consisting of children & families with lived experience evaluated the bid responses.
