Localities - What Is It About?
Inverclyde HSCP Locality Groups are established in accordance with the Public Bodies (Joint Working) (Scotland) Act 2014, the Act puts in place the legislative framework to integrate health and social care services in Scotland. Section 29(3) (a) of the Act noted above requires each integration Authority to establish at least two localities within its area. The HSCP is currently developing and building on our two Locality Planning groups (East and West) to support the understanding, planning and delivery of our HSCP services around communities within these localities.
Where are the East and West Localities?
The East Locality is defined as including the towns and villages of:
Kilmacolm and Quarriers Village
Port Glasgow
Greenock East and Central (boundary Bakers Brae)
The West Locality is defined as including the towns and villages of:
Greenock West and Gourock
Greenock South and Southwest
Inverkip and Wemyss Bay
Participation and Engagement
There is an exciting opportunity for our Localities to be involved in the overarching consultation of our new Strategic Plan and our Equalities Outcomes. A representative from the HSCP Locality Groups will represent the interests of their locality at the Strategic Planning Group (SPG).
