England’s health inequalities pose a growing challenge for all of us. Addressing health inequalities is now one of the top priorities for the NHS. Professor Sir Michael Marmot was asked to lead a strategic review to develop a joint approach to tackling health inequalities.This conference will give you the opportunity to hear more from Sir Michael about the review’s findings and recommendations. It will provide a unique opportunity to consider the essential roleof third sector organisations in addressing the problems.

During the day you will have the chance to discuss with colleagues from across the sector some of the specific challenges we face and how the Marmot Report can help your organisation’s work. You will have the opportunity to learn from keynote speakers as well as having the chance to attend two interactive workshops during the day to discuss issues in depth.

The event has been organised by the Department of Health’s Strategic Partners a wide ranging group of third sector organisations working with the Department to strengthen links between it and the sector. (VSNW is a Strategic Partner through its role in Regional Voices),
