Aligned with the national vision for place-based, integrated community health and social care, this engaging workshop will explore what the shift towards integrated community care really means for Cardiff and Vale—and how we can shape that future together.

As we move away from models focused solely on illness and treatment, there is a growing emphasis on prevention, equity, and community wellbeing. This session will take a deep dive into what that shift looks like in practice—how we invest in neighbourhood services, embed integration at every level, and redesign both service delivery and governance to build a sustainable, people-centred system.

Delegates will have the opportunity to engage in forward-thinking discussion about the opportunities and challenges of system transformation, drawing on local examples and exploring how national direction can be translated into meaningful local action.

This workshop is ideal for anyone involved in service planning, transformation, community development, or strategic partnerships—and for those keen to help shape a future where care is closer to home, more connected, and more responsive to what matters to people.

The workshop will be facilitated by Sioned Owen, Principal Analyst, Cardiff and Vale Regional Partnership Board along with partners from Welsh Government and across the region.
