About the Event
Dr. Jon Bashford unveiled the findings and recommendations from BBI’s work with West Lancashire CCG and latest report. The report explores the key factors from housing and the built environment and the impact on health in England. The report also contains a ‘playbook’ detailing a range of tools and methods that can be used by the NHS, Local Government, and partner organisations to build a sustainable approach to healthier homes and safer environments for all communities.
This summit was a significant opportunity to inform policy and practice and promote debate on how we can use housing and the lived environment as a catalyst for health improvement and addressing health inequalities at a pivotal time for public healthcare planning across the country.
