The Joint Strategic Assessment (JSNA) is an assessment of the current and future health and social care needs of the people of Leeds. It is the responsibility of the Health and Wellbeing Board and its purpose is to inform and guide the planning and commissioning of health, well-being and social care services enabling them to plan for the future.

Leeds’ JSA brings together a range of strategic overviews and detailed needs assessments with input from Council, NHS and partner agencies. We have grouped these into 6 themes:

• • A Changing City – Population Trends
  • Starting Well – Child Friendly Leeds
  • Living Well –
    • • Health & Wellbeing
      • Thriving Communities
      • Climate Change
  • Working Well – Inclusive Growth
  • Ageing Well – Age Friendly Leeds
  • Implications of the Analysis – Future work.

In addition, demographics and data relating to the health and wellbeing of the Leeds population can be found in our local areas profiles. The JSA should not be seen as a “one off” document. It is ever growing and changing as new reports and assessments are added, which can be referenced together.
