Networks (PCNs) across Tameside (Ashton PCN; Healthy Hyde PCN;
Stalybridge, Dukinfield & Mossley PCN; and Denton, Audenshaw
& Droylsden PCN) £0.02m over two years (£0.01m in
2023/24 and £0.01m in 2024/25) to enable enhanced,

patients who face a range of inequalities to improve the early

reducing the rates of advanced cardiovascular disease, frailty and
early preventable mortality in Tameside.
