  12. Reducing Dependency and Demand • Taking a Greater Manchester-wide approach which clearly adds value to reform at district level, particularly to those issues identified in our Community Budget proposals to reduce current and future dependency; early years, troubled families and transforming justice. • Reform of the health and social care system based on significantly improving outcomes from specialist acute services and delivering a substantial reduction in unplanned admissions to hospital and other care institutions • Deployment of common tools and techniques to support cross public service leadership at scale, including cost benefit analysis, investment agreements and data sharing

  13. Working Well (Work Programme Leavers) • Substance misuse has been identified as a significant issue for the c 5,000 Working Well cohort.  • PHE is currently in the process of setting up a data sharing protocol with the Working Well programme that will allow for the programme to monitor the effectiveness of its substance misuse referrals including; the volume of Working Well substance misuse treatment starts, waiting times and treatment outcomes. 13

  14. A Greater Manchester Alcohol Strategy • Councils now have considerable power to influence decisions made on alcohol licensing, but the process can be difficult and resource intensive. • Evidence suggests that limiting availability through times of sale and outlet density can have a positive impact on levels of harm particularly violence and disorder. • PHE and partners across GM are working to produce a toolkit to support LAs in being more active in their action on alcohol control through licensing, through improved intelligence, promoting a more consistent approach that leads to better enforcement. 14

  15. Digital technologies in alcohol treatment • Working with Greater Manchester Public Health Network to scale up the use of persuasive digital technologies within alcohol treatment services across GM.  • Following a successful trial in Bolton the aim of this project is to utilise a software/SMS text system that better engages clients in treatment and apply it to a cohort of clients that includes Working Well and to those seeking to sustain their employment. 15

  16. Improving Oral Public Health • Several Local Authorities have highlighted poor oral health of very young children as a priority. • The PHE Dental Health team is coordinating oral health needs assessments and evidence on effective action to all 10 LAs. • Working directly with Oldham on a focussed project of action with local partners, with plans to share this approach with other LAs in Greater Manchester with the most severe dental disease levels. • Health checks being delivered in primary dental care settings: innovative approach to improve take-up in hard to reach groups in Manchester and Salford, facilitated by PHE Health Improvement Manager and Consultant in Dental Public Health 16
