The NPPF requires local planning authorities to support local strategies to improve health and wellbeing. SCC has a duty to consider the Joint Strategic Needs Assessment and Health and Wellbeing Strategy. The latter contains four strategic outcomes that have land use implications which should be considered:
- Every Child in Suffolk has the best start in life
- Suffolk residents have access to a healthy environment and take responsibility for their own health and wellbeing.
- People in Suffolk have the opportunity to improve their mental health and wellbeing.
- Older people in Suffolk have a good quality of life.
