The North Wales Regional Partnership Board (NWRPB) has helped secure more than £45 million of capital investment to improve health, social care and housing services across the region, supporting some of the most vulnerable people in North Wales.
Working with partners across North Wales this programme has delivered projects that help people live healthier, more independent lives while strengthening services for vulnerable groups such as older people, children with complex needs, people with learning disabilities and those living with dementia. A key part of this work is developing community hubs where health, care and support services are delivered in one place, making it easier for people to access help and reducing pressure on hospitals and other services.
Canolfan Glanhwyfa in Llangefni, Anglesey has been transformed into a vibrant community hub providing support for older people, dementia services, and activities for families and young people. The development brings multiple services under one roof and offers a welcoming space at the heart of the community, and demonstrates the impact this funding has had.
Other major projects in North Wales include:
Funding has also supported family centres, children’s homes, respite services and supported living schemes across North Wales.
The projects are funded through a combination of Welsh Government capital programmes, including the Integration and Rebalancing Capital Fund (IRCF) and Health and Care Fund (HCF), alongside local authority and partnership investment.
Dilwyn Morgan, Chair of the North Wales Regional Partnership Board said:
“The Welsh Government capital investment funding through the IRCF and HCF capital programmes, has allowed us to work with partners across the region to develop facilities that truly reflect local need. From integrated community hubs to specialist provision for people with learning disabilities and dementia, this capital investment is strengthening services and supporting some of our most vulnerable residents to live healthier, more independent lives.”
The NWRPB brings together the six local authorities in North Wales, Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board (BCUHB), and public and voluntary sector partners to improve wellbeing and ensure services meet local needs. Through its capital programme, the Board has worked with partners across the region to deliver modern, community‑focused facilities that help people live healthier, more independent lives.
