Dr Claire Fuller, national priority programme director for neighbourhood health, together with Dr James Kent, national adviser in the Strategy Directorate, and colleagues from NHS England and the Department of Health and Social Care, undertook the tour as part of the national neighbourhood health stocktake programme.

The tours included visits to Health House, Willerby in Humber and North Yorkshire, Spital Street Health Centre in Sheffield and the Reginald Centre in Leeds.

Across all three visits, a consistent message emerged: neighbourhood health is a long-term transformation that depends on strong partnerships, prevention and a focus on the wider determinants of health.

As Kim Shutler, joint senior responsible officer in West Yorkshire, explained: ‘Neighbourhood health has to be about more than health services. It's about communities, prevention, housing, employment, social connection and all the things that help people live healthier lives.'
