These conditions influence people's opportunities for good health and shape their mental health, physical health and wellbeing. Evidence shows that people living in our most deprived areas face the worst health inequalities in relation to health access, experiences and outcomes. <br> About the Role and Our Ideal Candidate : <br><b> <strong> Fancy a Career in Public Health?
