The response to the JSNA took everyone by surprise.....
1. Introduction to context of Marmot 2. Relevance to Health & Social Care Integration 3. Relevance to JSNA 4. Examples of use in Practice 5. Over to you
The elements which make for a healthy society are multi-faceted Our frameworks and systems are not JSNA has an almost impossible task Everyone knows what they want the Health and Wellbeing Strategy to do...nobody wants to do it Need to plan across the lifecourse
Forward Comrades! The JSNA has solved all our problems!
ActivitiesFramework 1. Adopt the Outcomes Starting well Developing well Living well Working well Ageing well 2. Add an objective “dying well” 3.Cut our JSNA and Strategy across the Lifespan 4. Use as “golden thread” (still under construction) For Health Inequalities Action For JSNA For Health and Wellbeing Strategy For Integration As a lifecourse approach to human ecology

Key themes from the evidence Reducing health inequalities is a matter of fairness and social justice – inequality is avoidable. Action is needed to tackle the social gradient in health – Proportionate universalism Action on health inequalities requires action across all the social determinants of health avoiding lifestyle drift Reducing health inequalities is vital for the economy – cost of inaction A move beyond economic growth to well-being of society: sustainability and the fair distribution of health
Implications of the gradient Without health inequalities in England – Each year, if all had the mortality rate of 1) those with university education: Prevent 202,000 people aged 30+ dying prematurely (40 % of deaths); 2.5 million life years gained ; 2) those in most affluent 10% of areas: 2.8 million extra years of life free from limiting illness or disability Estimates calculated for Marmot Review based on ONS data
1) Give every child the best start in life. Priority objectives 1.Reduce inequalities in the early development of physical and emotional health, and cognitive, linguistic, and social skills. 2.Ensure high quality maternity services, parenting programmes, childcare and early years education to meet need across the social gradient. 3.Build the resilience and well-being of young children across the social gradient. Focus Group respondent – Single Parent in Manchester: “I’m not mentally ok because I’m doing too much, but then how am I helping my children?”
2) Enable all children, young people and adults to maximise their capabilities and have control over their lives. Priority objectives 1.Reduce the social gradient in skills and qualifications. 2.Ensure that schools, families and communities work in partnership to reduce the gradient in health, well-being and resilience of children and young people. 3.Improve the access and use of quality lifelong learning across the social gradient. Focus Group Respondent,Birmingham “If there is no education, there are no jobs these days, so it really is worrying. If your children don’t get a good education then what’s going to happen to them”
