The champs support team enables the Directors of Public Health and local teams to work together effectively to acheive better quality services, increased value for money and improved health outcomes for the local populations of Cheshire and Merseyside. 

The team, hosted by Wirral Council, is the engine room to facilitate co-operation, knowledge transfer, contacts, networking and development for colleagues working in public health.
