Trafford

About us

The borough of Trafford has long been a place to live and age well. Steeped in history, it’s also a national and international hub for culture and leisure, home to Manchester United, Coronation Street studios, Chill Factore and the Trafford Centre. Our diverse population of more than 237,000 people guides us as we develop and deliver health and social care services that our residents deserve.

Trafford Integrated Care Partnership planning is built around our towns – Altrincham, Stretford, Urmston, Partington and Sale – and neighbourhoods, and by working with other localities in the Greater Manchester Integrated Care Partnership. We’ll achieve our aims by bringing together partners and colleagues to design and deliver on our ambitions for better lives for our most vulnerable people; better wellbeing for our population; and better connections across our communities.

Trafford’s six major priority areas for improving and maintaining people’s health and wellbeing are: prevention of illness and long-term conditions; helping people to live well at home; planned care such as routine operations; urgent care services like emergency departments; children’s services; and mental health.
