Our Committee

Home > About Us > Our Committee

The Wakefield District Health and Care Partnership is a committee of the West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board (ICB). The ICB Scheme of Reservation and Delegation gives authority to the Committee to make decisions that affect local people.

These decisions include the best way to use resources across the Wakefield District to improve outcomes for local people and tackle the inequalities that exist in health and care in our different communities.

The Committee meetings are held in public. This means anyone can attend and listen to the discussion. The next Committee meeting in public will be held on Tuesday 11 February 2025. 

Committee members

The Wakefield District Health and Care Partnership Committee is made up of voting and non-voting members in attendance who meet regularly. They come from across Wakefield District, including public health, general practice, acute and mental health trusts and the voluntary sector.

There is also an independent chair and two independent members who bring constructive, independent, and respectful challenge to the plans, aims and priorities of the Partnership, and promote open and transparent decision-making aimed to deliver exceptional outcomes for our local population.

Our Committee meetings are business meetings which, for transparency, we hold in public. They are not ‘public meetings’ for consulting with the public – we do this in a variety of different ways. Find out more about how we engage with people.

Ask a question

We welcome questions from members of the public about items on the agenda. Questions will be read out at the start of the meeting by the Chair and answered by a member of the Committee.

 

To be considered during the meeting, questions must be submitted 48 hours before the start of the meeting. Every effort will be made to include as many public questions as possible.

 

Please send your question by email to wyicb-wak.wdhcp@nhs.net  or if you prefer, you can call us with your question on 01924 213050. Alternatively, you can post your question to us at:

Please include your contact details so that we can provide you with a response.
