Health Inequalities Action Plan

Bradford and Airedale Health and Wellbeing Board

2013 – 2017

T H E B R A D F O R D D I S T R I C T H E A LT H A N D W E L L B E I N G S T R AT E G Y

I am delighted to introduce the Health Inequalities Action Plan, which has been developed by the Bradford and Airedale Health and Wellbeing Board to support the Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy (JHWS). The plan is intended to be read alongside the JHWS as it ensures that, as we strive to improve the health and wellbeing for the whole population of Bradford District, we also remain mindful of the significant inequalities within the district – the fact that in some parts of the district, people lead far shorter, less healthy lives than those in other areas. The plan spells out that we have the greatest chance of reducing inequalities in health and wellbeing if organisations, communities and individuals continue to work closely together. Our commitment to sustaining and developing partnership working has never been more important than it is now as we try to sustain progress in the face of significant reductions in public spending.

This plan describes the Lead Partnership for each of the 18 priorities in the JHWS, and each of those Partnerships will lead or co-ordinate the work which ensures we continue to focus upon improving the health and wellbeing of those whose needs are greatest and to make tackling health inequalities a top priority.

Foreword

What are health inequalities?“Health inequalities” are the differences in the health of different parts of the population. For example, people in more deprived areas have a shorter life expectancy than those who live in less deprived areas. Inequalities also exist in other aspects of people’s health – for example, people in more deprived areas tend to smoke more, drink more alcohol, and are more likely to experience long-term illness. Inequalities also exist between groups according to other factors, such as gender, ethnic background, certain sorts of disability and sexual orientation. Whilst the health of the population has improved continuously since the industrial revolution, the rate of improvement in those from poorer backgrounds has generally been slower than for those who are more affluent. This means that, in health terms, the gap between the most and least deprived is widening.The Local Authority, the NHS locally, and other organisations work hard to ensure that differences between groups are as small as possible – we want to ensure that, wherever possible, an individual’s health and wellbeing is not determined by the area in which they were born, or in which they live, or – for example - their ethnicity.

Why do inequalities matter?In the past two decades there has been an increased focus on reducing inequalities, and in Spring 2013, the Secretary of State for Health said:“Everyone should have the same opportunity to lead a healthy life no matter where they live or who they are, which is why we must continue to work to narrow the gap in health inequalities. Local areas must work together to address the health needs of their population and make a real difference in tackling health inequalities.”

There are a number of reasons why people think that inequalities are important.Possibly the most important reason is that the effect inequalities have seems unfair. Put simply, the poorer a person is, the less likely they are to survive infancy and the less likely they are to live into old age.Additionally, evidence suggests that where the greatest inequalities exist, the health of the whole population – even the relatively affluent – is worse than it would be if inequalities were less significant.There is also an acceptance that inequalities begin in childhood, and subsequently widen over an individual’s lifetime. That is to say that if children have very different experiences of health when they are very young, then they will experience even greater differences as adults.Furthermore, inequalities in health and its determinants can trigger other problems – such as crime, poor educational outcomes, and mental health issues such as situational depression. This can in turn make areas more deprived, and this can widen the gap in inequalities. As such, it becomes a vicious circle.Finally, because Bradford is more deprived than other areas, any argument that inequalities do not matter could logically be extended to say that it is acceptable for the population of Bradford to experience poorer health than those of its neighbours.

What leads to inequalities?There are a number of factors which lead to Health Inequalities. Most experts tend to place these factors into a small number of groups – such as those listed below. It is important, however, to bear in mind that experts think of these as the factors which are likely to lead to poorer health. There is every reason to believe that people can live healthy lives even in the harshest circumstances.

Social factors:These are issues which affect the population as a whole, but do not necessarily affect everybody equally. Examples include government policies, the availability of work, general levels of wages, taxation and how much things cost – particularly the prices of essentials such as fuel, transport, food, and clothing. These big, broad considerations can affect how much the public sector can spend on health and wellbeing.

Living and working conditions:These include the important issues for people as they go about their lives, day in, day out: things like education, training and employment, housing, public transport and amenities. It also includes basic facilities like reliable utility supplies (gas, water and electricity) and being able to get hold of essential goods like food and clothing.

Social and community networks: A person’s “network” includes his or her family, friends and social circles – and the way all of those people together support, influence, advise and guide the individual. A strong network of family and friends can help to ensure that an individual has a healthy lifestyle. Sometimes, individuals living alone may not have any “network”; sometimes the “network” can have an unsupportive effect, such as encouraging the consumption of alcohol to excess.

Individual lifestyle factors: These are sometimes described as lifestyle choices, because they tend to refer to things that people can generally choose to do, or not do. This would include things such as tobacco use, alcohol consumption, and drug use, whether people eat healthily and whether they take regular physical exercise. These choices are influenced by the environment in which the individual lives – how friends and family act, how products are advertised and so on.

Healthcare factors:There is evidence to suggest that sometimes the parts of the population in the greatest need are poorly understood. This can mean that services are constructed and

commissioned to address the needs of the whole population, but not in such a way that inequalities are addressed.Additionally, low-cost healthcare is sometimes under-used in a population. When this happens, it tends to be the most deprived parts of the population who are worst affected, because illness and disease is most prevalent in those areas. This therefore leads to a widening of the gap between the most and least deprived areas of a population.

Personal factors: These include some of the basic definitions of who people are: age, sex, ethnicity and genetic factors. There is nothing that can be done to change these factors – but understanding more about the population can help us to develop strategies, policies and practices, and can influence the way the Local Authority and the NHS communicate with people.

Addressing inequalitiesBecause inequalities are so complex, we cannot always deal with them in the same way. For example: • Some of the time, we focus on particular

parts of Bradford District, because it is most important to ensure that health and wellbeing in the most deprived areas ‘catches up’ with the less deprived areas. In other instances, the focus is on the whole of Bradford District

• Sometimes, campaigns to improve health and wellbeing need to be focused on individuals; sometimes on the population as a whole

Through wide consultation with partnerships across the District, each of the priorities within the Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy now has an agreed set of commitments (action points) that will be delivered against to reduce inequalities in that particular area of health and wellbeing.
