Greater Manchester Strategy: Stronger Together

Further to the announcement of devolution across Greater Manchester GM authorities earlier this year, this report sets out GM's progress against its own targets for a devolved thriving economy and a healthy, self-reliant population.

In relation to housing, the report highlights the establishment of a 10 year recyclable £300m GM Housing Investment Fund that will attract an additional £750m to stimulate and reshape local housing markets.

In terms of health and social care, there is a greater emphasis on integrated health & wellbeing approach that pools budgets and builds independence by encouraging a greater self-reliance that can reduce demand on more costly care services.
