- Feedback from county councillors representing the eligible areas
- Feedback from district council colleagues
- Feedback from education and employment, skills, and training county council colleagues (where appropriate)
- Decision making panels comprising Siobhan Farmer (Director of Public Health), Councillor Mark Hawthorne (Leader of the Council) and Steve Mawson (Director of Corporate Resources)
