AHL Reference Site Regions

AHL Reference Sites are an alliance or partnership of stakeholders within a region or major metropolitan area that can implement or develop innovative and person-centered solutions and digital technologies to address the life-course health and care needs and priorities for active and healthy living.

What are AHL Reference Sites?

AHL References Sites will have adopted a "Quadruple Helix" model to ensure all stakeholders:

  • have a common understanding of the organisational, technical and financial challenges facing the region or area within health and care, and active and healthy ageing;

  • are working collaboratively to define and implement innovative solutions for improving patient and service user outcomes, increasing the sustainability of health and care systems, and creating economic growth and jobs.

The lead authority for health and social care in the region is a fundamental stakeholder in the AHL Reference Site.
