Important information about this website

From 1 July 2022, NHS Kirklees CCG will become part of NHS West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board. We will continue to work with health and care colleagues to improve outcomes for people in Kirklees and across West Yorkshire.

The changes mean that from 30 June, this website will be archived and will no longer be updated. A new website for the Kirklees Health and Care Partnership – http://www.kirkleeshcp.co.uk – will be launched on 1 July

NHS Greater Huddersfield and NHS North Kirklees CCGs have both agreed a set of shared equality objectives for 2018 – 2022. These objectives have been developed following involvement with the local voluntary, community and social enterprise sector, staff and public sector partners. The objectives set out the three equality priorities that we will work on over the next four years:

  1. Improve access to GP practices for specific equality groups including LGBT,  children and young people
  2. Improve engagement with specific equality groups
  3. Improve governance processes for equality

Progress on the equality objectives is monitored every six months by the Quality Committee, there is a Equality Objective Steering group involving local community representatives and an annual update for 2019-20 is provided in the CCGs Equality Objectives action plan. A plain text version is also available which maybe more accessible for people using assistive technology.
