The recent webinar focussed on the roles of health professionals in reducing the inequalities gap. Our panel told us movingly and with great insight about their work with disadvantaged and marginalised communities:
Dr. Natalie Miller leads a GP practice offering services accessible to those who are homeless; Stephanie Morrison engages with prisoners in activities building health and wellbeing inside the prison walls; Johanna White is a research nurse developing supportive services in disadvantaged areas of Sheffield.
Through their sharing of experiences and responses to your questions we were led to understand more about the challenges that inequalities in health pose in practice. There was much to digest and to put forward into our work where there is most need for help to be healthy.
