The Prevention Working Group was a working group that was set up in November 2015 under the Community Planning Board. The aim of the working group was to look at prevention, to develop a local strategy for this across Moray and to produce a Prevention Plan. The long term aim of prevention is to focus resources in the areas where the greatest impact can be achieved and which can lead to more self-sustaining communities, less reliant on public services. The working group successfully transferred its function to the Sustainability and Communities Partnership Group and completed in November 2016.
