With integrated care systems now just over two years old, how effective are they in succeeding at their goals, and what needs to change for them to be more effective in the coming years?

If there was any doubt over the importance of public health policy, the COVID-19 pandemic put paid to the notion. But with an 18-year difference in healthy life expectancy between the most deprived and affluent communities, are we missing a trick when it comes to public health?

Unpacking what public health is and covers, Professor Fenton also argues that a productive economy needs a healthy population; tackling broader issues such as health inequalities and community health are key to this.
