Integrated Locality Partnerships (ILP’s) are a way of joining up a wide range of local services to tackle the root causes of health inequalities and improve people’s health and wellbeing. They are part of the Integrated Care System.

Integrated Care System

One Gloucestershire Integrated Care System (ICS) is the partnership between the countys NHS organisations and Gloucestershire County Council. By working together ICS member organisations aim to deliver more joined-up support and services within communities to address health inequalities and improve public health. You can find out more about the ICS here

Integrated Locality Partnerships

Integrated Locality Partnerships (ILPs) are partnerships made up of organisatons from the VCSE sector, Public sector and a range of other agencies within the county. These organisations work in partnership to bring services together and plan how they are delivered within local communities. Their aim is to deliver the priorities set out by Gloucestershire's health and care partnership. This is called a ‘population based approach’ to improving health and care because it is tailored to the areas that people live in. You can find out more information about ILPs here.

ILP Representatives

In Gloucestershire, the VCSE sector has ILP representatives in each of the six districts within the county. Representatives are responsible for:

  • Developing relationships between public sector organisations and the VCSE sector
  • Supporting effective communication and improving the way both sectors work together at a local level
  • Gathering and representing people’s experiences, priorities, views and concerns
  • Sharing information about the work of the ILP and the opportunities it presents

Representatives talk to local VCSE groups & organisations and attend forums - they champion the VCSE sector as an equal partner in the design and delivery of services.

How are representatives accountable?

Representatives are appointed from the sector and are accountable to the sector. This is overseen by Gloucestershire VCSE Strategic Partnership. You can find more information about the Strategic Partnership here.
