Haygarth Lecture - All Together Fairer; a collaboration for tackling inequalities

Ian Ashworth, Director of Population Health, NHS Cheshire and Merseyside and Helen Bromley, Director of Public Health, Cheshire West and Chester 

Haygarth celebrates the legacy of 18th Century physician Dr John Haygarth, who pioneered disease control measures. Described as 'Clinical Investigator - Apostle of Sanitation', he helped stem a smallpox epidemic threatening the city's population in the late 1700s whilst practising Medicine at Chester Royal Infirmary.

All Together Fairer is Cheshire and Merseyside’s collaborative approach to improving health equity and the social determinants of health in the subregion. The Programme brings together public, private and third sector organisations with one shared aim: to build a fairer, healthier Cheshire and Merseyside.

This year’s Haygarth lecture describes the All Together Fairer Programme and explores what that looks like for us locally in Cheshire West and Chester.

Tea and coffee will be served from 6pm.
