Lead the change on health inequalities

You play a critical role in tackling health inequalities, both in terms of the services trusts provide and their role in the wider system.

But there are clear challenges, and evidence shows the scale and complexity of health inequalities and the social determinants of health remain barriers to progress.

This programme provides practical support through real-world peer learning, peer insight, case studies and resources - focusing on the key areas where trusts can make a lasting impact:

  • The crucial role of trusts: Understand why and how you should take action through best practices and solution-focused discussions.
  • Data: Harness patient data to identify and target action on inequalities.
  • Integration: Discover how collaboration and integrated working can drive improvements in patient care, boost efficiency and strengthen the foundations of our healthcare system.
  • Engagement with communities: Explore how to co-produce and co-design services with patients and communities.
  • Being an anchor institution: Deliver your ambitions to ensure the health and wellbeing of your local community.
