Pre-pandemic child health in the North of England was poor and deteriorating. Since the pandemic these trends have worsened further. This panel discussion will focus how to tackle the inequalities that exist for children born in the North of England to create a brighter future and look at initial findings from the NHSA and N8’s, Child of the North report which analyses the disproportionate outcomes for those born in the North of England in areas such as life expectancy, ill health, education and economic prospects.
This panel is part of Policy@Manchester’s activity at the Labour Party Conference Fringe. It is taking place outside the secure zone and no pass is required to attend.
