About us

One Croydon Alliance

The One Croydon Alliance is a health and care partnership created from a shared ambition to use Outcomes Based Commissioning to improve the lives of older people in Croydon. The partners in this Alliance are: Croydon Council, Croydon Health Services, Croydon Clinical Commissioning Group, Croydon GP Collaborative, South London and Maudsley Mental Health NHS Trust and Age UK Croydon.

In 2014, Croydon Council and the Croydon Clinical Commissioning Group recognised they faced a common challenge to improve services for older people in an environment where demand was increasing and resources were reducing. They agreed to work together to establish an Outcome Based Commissioning (OBC) framework to develop services for people over 65.

There followed an extensive engagement programme with local residents and stakeholder groups to agree local outcome priorities and local providers worked to develop a new Model of Care in consultation with local stakeholders and service users.

Alliance vision and ambition

'Working together to help you lead your life'

"The Alliance vision is to support the people in Croydon to be independent and live longer, healthier and fulfilling lives and be able to access high quality care, in the right place and at the right time, thereby reducing health inequality in Croydon. The aim is to achieve this vision while realising financial sustainability in the system and maintaining improved outcomes".
