Health inequalities

Core20Plus5 focuses on the most deprived 20 per cent of people in the country.

Reflecting the ten-year health plan workstream, ‘I am treated in a fair and inclusive way, irrespective of who I am’, speakers in this session will discuss why collaboration and engagement with communities at grassroot levels has been critical in informing the plan and what it means for partnership working across the NHS for the next decade and beyond.
