Children and Young People – Creative Engagement

Within the planning stages for this engagement, we spoke to the Children’s Sustainable Transformation Partnership (STP) Board who are responsible for running, choosing and buying health services for CAYP in Derbyshire. The Children’s STP Board told us that they would like to find out what helps CAYP to make healthy lifestyle choices.

This was due to the fact that the information they had collected suggests that in Derbyshire being a healthy weight, exercise levels, tooth decay, teenage pregnancy, smoking, drugs and alcohol are all real issues and challenges within the county, compared to many other areas of the country.
