Market Position Statement 2023 - 2033

Our Market Position Statement is all-age which means it covers the services we commission for children and families, public health, older people, people with a learning disability or autism and people with a mental health condition.

It is a strategic document. It sets a vision for what we want the market in Cheshire West and Chester to look like in the next five to ten years. It provides a narrative focusing on what we believe to be the priorities to achieve our vision. The Market Position Statement is here to stimulate a conversation with you and to help you to align your thinking and plan and shape your business models and strategies accordingly.

We intend for this to be a ‘living’ tool to help you plan. It will be refreshed every 12 months around February and March time. It is a rolling five to ten year look ahead at the kind of market we want, and we hope will support a better dialogue and stronger partnership with you so that we all can play our part.
