Spotlight briefings
Keep up to date with national public health policy and guidance and how this translates into current local practice.
Our new spotlight briefings summarise the essential information that decision makers need on important health issues. Each briefing puts the science, national policy and guidance into a local context to support local decisions.
The briefings are developed on a quarterly basis for partner organisations we work with.

Needs assessments
Needs assessments are more traditional JSNA products where in-depth information about a specific topic or population group is gathered and analysed. They include data about population need, community voice, available services and community assets, and they result in a gap analysis and recommendations for action.
Needs assessments are conducted to support specific strategic or commissioning decision making, so will not always be available for all subjects.
