Event details

As Cheshire and Merseyside emerges from the COVID-19 pandemic, there is an urgent need to build a wellbeing economy that puts the achievement of improved health and wellbeing, and health equity at the heart of its system wide strategy.

Over the last few months, The Institute of Health Equity, led by Professor Sir Michael Marmot, has undertaken extensive consultation in each of the nine Places across Cheshire and Merseyside to inform a new strategy for tackling health inequalities over the next 5 years.

This event is a unique opportunity to hear about the new strategy and its priorities and plan how we work together as a system to achieve them.

The event will be chaired by Cllr Louise Gittins, Leader of Cheshire West & Chester Council and run in collaboration with Professor Sir Michael Marmot and his team.
