Minutes:

 

The report considered by Cabinet contained a proposal to carry out refurbishment work on a high street property in Eastwood at 47 Nottingham Road, using Shared Prosperity Funding and East Midlands Combined Council Authority funds in order to create a multi-agency working and common service delivery hub for NHS, DWP, Council employees and other public and voluntary service partners.

 

RESOLVED that, subject to the conditions set out in paragraph 3 of the report, the Council agree to lease and refurbish 47 Nottingham Road, Eastwood to create the Eastwood CEDARS Office for a pilot period of two years.

 

Reason

Eastwood is an area which suffers from significant pockets of ill health, lower skills, higher unemployment and poor access to health and DWP services. Residents currently have to go to Heanor to access DWP services.
