Our website provides an opportunity to learn and comment on the health and social care services and priorities that will reduce the health inequalities and improve provision for those individuals who are offenders or those in contact with criminal justice system.

We are seeking to provide a one stop shop for advice, guidance, case studies and good practice in all areas where healthcare social care and the criminal justice system work in partnership.

We describe ourselves as a small team, in reality we would be better to describe ourselves as a network of individuals working in offender health across organisations to deliver health improvements for offenders.

The West Midlands Regional Offender Health Strategic Partnership

Our Regional Multi Agency Delivery Plan 2010-11 has been approved by our Strategic Board.

The aim of the delivery plan is to agree the key regional priorities, success measures and key organisations involved in the improvement of offender health and social care.  Getting this right will contribute to a reduction in health inequalities, a contribution to PSA targets, a contribution to reducing reoffending and support the principles behind the NHS' QIPP programme.
