This reportfrom Public Health England East Midlands and the East Midlands Clinical Senate aims to support the delivery of the prevention challenge in the region.

This report written in conjunction with the Royal College of Surgeons and with the support of the East Midlands Academic Health Science Network, Commissioning Services for an Ageing Population and Those Living with Frailty, summarises national publications with guidance on delivering services for older people and those living with frailty.
Commissioning services for an ageing population and those living with frailty needs to change. The emerging evidence around frailty, the absolute need to provide holistic person centred care and changing demographics mandate that change. This report is intended to be a useful, practical resource for commissioners; concepts like ‘frailty’ and interventions like ‘comprehensive geriatric assessment’ are incredibly important. This report is an opportunity to explain the language and help aid understanding, and ensure that value adding priorities and standards drive commissioning.
This report by the East Midlands Clinical Senate provides background information, a case for change and recommendations to encourage more people to be more active more of the time. The focus of the report is physical activity and the benefits to be obtained through its use in prevention of ill health, in risk reduction and as an active treatment.
Physical inactivity poses a serious and growing threat to our society - it is a pan-societal issue damaging our health, economy and environment. Levels of physical activity are declining and we need to act.
