I’ll cover….
• The value of VCS to JSNA
• The value of the JSNA to the VCS
• How the VCS can input
Anything else??
Value of the VCS to JSNA
Unique evidence
Needs- concerns- aspirations- challenges- resources in local communities (geography and interest)
Service providers can share data and insight from experienceSpecialist organisations can act as an advocates for particular community interests, sharing their understanding Knowledge of routes to engagement with particular communitiesCo-design solutions with commissioners
"It gives us access to a wider range of evidence that we would have otherwise. It provides us with links to ground level work.”
Neil Bendel, Manchester Council
"There is huge richness in the voluntary sector because they know the communities better than we ever can." Shahed Ahmad, Director of Public Health, Enfield Council
Co-design- gathering evidence for how to solve the issues
VCS insight on how to tailor
interventions for local
communities
Locally tailored services for
specific community
needs
“Evidenced”public health
interventions
Enhanced with VCS
intelligence
Statutory data sets
demonstrate issues
What’s in it for us?
• Integral to the continuous process of strategic assessment and planning
• Must inform local authority, CCG and NHS England commissioning plans
• Commissioners won’t fund something that isn’t evidenced-especially in this financial climate
How to input to JSNA
Find out what yours looks like- • What’s in it (and what’s not)?• How does the local authority consult• What’s the timetable?• Who compiles it?• Is there a JSNA working group?• What VCS organisations
feed in already?
•Respond to calls for evidence
•Is your CVS involved?
•Healthwatch?
•Contact the LA officer lead on JSNA
•Talk to commissioners you know
Routes in to JSNA

• What evidence do you have?
• What information does the health and wellbeing board have (open source)?
• How does your JSNA structure information?
Telling your story
Make your message easy to
“cut and paste”
Intelligence you haveHard data• Outputs e.g. activities undertaken and the number (and type) of
beneficiaries- demonstrate change in demand and existing need for commissioners
• Outcomes from services/interventions - changes, benefits, learning or other effects of the work (external evaluations)
• Impact - long term change that occurs as a result of an intervention- social, economic and environmental change.
Softer intelligence• Insight- know what is happening NOW, what people are saying• Knowledge of how to link in with particular communities
