Profiles of Health

Sheffield City Council has this year established community assemblies (CAs) in the City. This is a major new initiative which is intended to localise much decision making and make elected councillors more accountable to the populations they serve. There are seven such assemblies in the City, each comprising four electoral wards.

In the following sections, a health and well being profile of each community assembly is presented. The profile first gives an overview of health in the area before exploring issues in more detail including a closer look at life expectancy, premature death and ill health, healthy lifestyles and the wider determinants of ill health. The profiles consider the state of health for the CA as a whole as well as any major variation at electoral ward level.
