Boroughbury Medical Centre and Paston – launched in 2019

Integrated Neighbourhood Priorities 2024-2025:

  • Older people: Supporting residents to be stronger for longer by working in partnership with neighbourhood members and maximising on existing community asset. Particular focus will aim to develop support for people that are identified as living their last year of life, living with memory loss, and falls prevention.
  • Healthier Lifestyles: Working with community champions to activate meaningful lifestyle improvements in trusted community groups whilst being mindful of health inequalities. With initial energy aligned to coproducing healthy lifestyle events which illicit health promotion activity such as smoking cessation, hypertension case finding, screening, and carer identification.
  • Employment: With the highest fit note rate across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Integrated Care System it is agreed that community groups and health and care professionals in the neighbourhood will collectively respond to the needs of the population. The ambition is to enable residents to be in meaningful and sustainable work.

Bretton, Park, and Hampton – launched 2024

Integrated Neighbourhood Priorities 2024-2025:

  • Children and Young People: Focusing on Mental Health. We believe that the wellbeing of our children and young people is foundational to a thriving community. Our priority is to engage with and better understand the needs of children and young people who live in our neighbourhood. So, we are better able to provide mental health support through accessible services, educational programs, and community initiatives. By promoting early intervention and reducing stigma, we aim to ensure that every young person has the opportunity to flourish emotionally and build resilience into adulthood.
  • Health Inequalities: Focusing on Better Access. Health should not be determined by where we are born, grow, live, work and age. We are dedicated to reducing health inequalities by improving access to essential health services. This includes working with the NHS and wider community to find innovative solutions and building local initiatives, engaging people with lived experience to guide our work, improving health communications to our residents so that information is accessible and provided in a way they can understand and make informed decisions on, increasing health education, and working with our partners to address the social determinants of health. Our goal is to create a more equitable health landscape where everyone, regardless of background, can achieve better health and wellbeing.
  • Ageing Well: Focusing on Frailty. England has an ageing population and our neighbourhood values and supports its older residents. We focus on ageing well by addressing issues of frailty and promoting active, healthy ageing. Through coordinated care, tailored support services, and community engagement, we strive to enhance the quality of life for our older residents, ensuring they remain independent, safe, and socially connected.

Peterborough and East – launched 2024

Peterborough and East Integrated Neighbourhood are just at  the start of their integrated neighbourhood journey, holding a collaborative neighbourhood launch event in May 2024 and the first board meeting held at the end of June 2024, with the below priorities agreed. Prevention and Education will be the 'golden thread' that we aim to incorporate through all of our work within Peterborough and East Integrated Neighbourhood (IN), our first project will focus on developing a community survey, to decipher the true needs of our residents. Initially, the focus areas for health inequalities will be the top 4 prevalences in the IN which are smoking, obesity, hypertension and depression. Through our Frailty priority, the first pieces of work will begin around our most frail patients. ​

Integrated Neighbourhood Priorities 2024-2025:

  • Prevention and education: Empowering our communities, increasing the knowledge, skills and confidence a person has to enable them to better manage their own health and well-being. To encourage non-medical interventions, strengthen community-based initiatives and to build upon our professional networks across the neighbourhood. 
  • Health inequalities: Engaging with the under-represented cohorts and communities, understanding how to communicate effectively across our diverse community to support an integrated and equitable approach to healthy lifestyles.​
  • Frailty: Supporting our frail population to live well independently and bringing care closer to home. Considering those with multiple conditions, vulnerability, nutritional support, transport, isolation, end of life care and support for carers.​

South Peterborough – launched 2019

Integrated Neighbourhood Priorities 2024-2025:

  • Healthier Lives, Living better: Focusing on obesity, hypertension, and smoking, aiming to prevent and manage these health issues to enhance quality of life and outcomes for affected individuals. By using targeted non-medical interventions, the initiative strives to support our population in living healthier and longer lives.
  • Health Inequalities: Understanding health inequalities and supporting residents to engage with screening and vaccination. We identify vulnerable groups, such as carers and young carers, and take proactive measures to support them. Additionally, we examine the impact of technology on health disparities and conduct dedicated initiatives to ensure broad digital inclusion within the population.
  • Older Adults, generational support: Our focus on dementia includes supporting both those with the condition and their caregivers. We also prioritise the mental health of older adults, addressing key factors such as isolation that contribute to declining mental health in this population. Additionally, we concentrate on peripheral arterial disease, a life-limiting condition affecting older adults, with an emphasis on enhancing daily living activities through specialised interventions
