This strategy does not exist in isolation. It seeks to complement, inform and reinforce ambitions from other local and regional strategies and plans, and to maximise opportunities for Gateshead and our people and families.

As a key component of the Gateshead Health and Wellbeing Strategy, local partners recognise the importance of tackling poverty and ensuring a healthy standard of living for all as a fundamental driver of health and wellbeing.
As the strategy and action plans evolve, we will continue to incorporate insights from local, regional and national work and flex our approaches in response to external pressures and opportunities.
