03/12/2020 - The Director of Public Health has approved the return of £126,383 Local Workforce Action Board funding to West Yorkshire and Harrogate ICS (via Wakefield CCG) due to the regional post no long hosted by Leeds City Council

This funding was originally funded by the WY&H LWAB to fund a West Yorkshire and Harrogate public health workforce development post (started Feb 2019 and left the post Feb 2020) and a separate WY&H collaborative workforce development project to work across the WY&H ICS footprint (funded for 12-18 months from Sept 2019). As the project has had to pause due to the post holder leaving and as a result of COVID-19, both the underspend from the post becoming vacant and the project not being led by Leeds City Council there is a need to return the remaining funding to WY&H ICS.
