In what moral universe can this be the right thing to do: the lower the life expectancy of a local area in 2010-12, the greater the cuts to government funding in the subsequent years. Was this a deliberate policy to increase health inequalities?

Great to see there are now 30 NIHR Research Health Determinants Research Collaborations!

They do important work improving the evidence basis for local decision making around health inequalities.

Lovely to share a taxi to station with Prof Yeliz Prior after #BSR24 . Taxi driver outnumbered when it came to argument about fit note culture!

Last chance to visit ARMA stand at #BSR2 . We are tucked in the far corner but worth the effort to find out more about our work on inequalities (and the other excellent small charities with stands around us).

All set up at #BSR24 . Come and see us on stand 55. Short talk 1.30 today exhibition stage 1.
