Director of Public Health Annual Report pdf icon PDF 75 KB

To consider a report of the Director of Public Health.

 

The report draws attention to stark health inequalities in Stockport and outlines how social determinants of health play a role in driving and therefore addressing these inequalities. It presents the principle of addressing health inequalities by improving everyone’s health, but doing so according to people’s different levels of need: proportionately more support and resources are needed for those already disadvantaged or at higher risk / need.

 

The Scrutiny Committee is invited to consider the implications of the report, particularly in connection with its planned scrutiny review on the topic of health inequalities.
