Understanding vulnerability and risks due to COVID

Our initial bid into the COVID Response Fund from the MHCLG Local Digital Collaboration Team was about applying and developing our household risk model based on understanding the life events experienced by a household. This was designed to work alongside our work on understanding the impact of COVID and supporting the work we had done on outbound calling residents of the district to understand if they needed support to help during COVID and direct them to where they can find support.

Our initial work helped understand who might have a need now, the risk modelling is about trying to find out who will be vulnerable in the future and how we can engage with them early and direct them towards supporting services found within their community.
