Levelling Up Health
Public health experts urge government to put health at the heart of the levelling up agenda in this new report Levelling Up Health: A practical evidence-based framework.
The new report, co-led by the Universities of Cambridge and Newcastle, provides practical guidance on how to reduce health inequalities at local and regional level. The guidance is aimed at central and local government as well as other agencies with a stake in improving health. It sets out five principles and eight policy recommendations that are designed to be used together long-term across national, regional and local systems.
