The Strategy was implemented in April 2005 for a 3 year period, with subsequent strategies covering 5 years. It is not a static document and will evolve over time to meet future needs and impact on the quality of life of the people of Bridgend County Borough.

The aim of the Strategy is:

To consider all aspects of the health, social care and well-being of the population of the County.
To improve services, and to ensure better planning and investment of resources by organisations serving the population.
To refocus on preventative and early intervention services.
To improve joint working.
