” Hello, our names are Ian and Tony, The West Yorkshire and Harrogate Health and Care Partnership is founded on the principle of collaboration. Working together, across health and care partners, with local communities gives us the best chance of improving health and care for everyone. This collaboration stretches beyond health and care organisations. Yorkshire benefits from a vibrant university sector, which works closely in partnership through groups, such as Yorkshire Universities. Higher education is a huge asset to our region and it can be a critical factor in the West Yorkshire response to Covid-19. The COVID-19 crisis presents an opportunity to accelerate efforts to tackle the climate emergency that should be capitalised on, representatives from Yorkshire’s universities agreed at the 5 May virtual roundtable convened by Yorkshire Universities and Arup. Several key themes emerged: In February, which seems a like a lifetime ago now, and when it was still permissible to gather in large groups, YU invited academics from Newcastle University to Leeds in order to meet university counterparts in Yorkshire, as well as local authority and health officials, in order to present findings from a newly-published report on some of the lessons learned from the Urban Living Partnership (ULP) pilots. Find out more about why ULPs are important in these brief interviews by two of the report authors: Louise Kempton and David Marlow. Universities UK has called for the establishment of a ‘transformation fund’ to support universities over the next two to three years to reshape and consolidate through ‘federations’ and partnerships, or potentially merge with other higher education institutions, further education colleges or private providers’. This week’s leadership message comes from our Partnership Director Ian Holmes and Tony Jamieson, Director of Transformation for Yorkshire & Humber Academic Health Science Network.
