First published in March 2016, the purpose of the Public Health Outcomes Framework (PHOF) is to help us understand the impact which our individual behaviours, public services, programmes and policies are having on health and well-being in Wales. Public Health Wales works closely with stakeholders from local public health teams and Welsh Government to produce this reporting tool. Developed in an agile way, we meet our stakeholders regularly to agree how the reporting tool looks, is navigated, and how indicators are broken down.
