You cannot address health inequalities without addressing racism and discrimination in the NHS- Ruth Robertson #KFAnnual Barnardo's Health The King's Fund

“The NHS cannot get better at tackling health inequalities without actively supporting and working with VCSE organisations” Ruth Robertson #KFAnnual Barnardo's Health The King's Fund

Seven priorities to tackle health inequalities #KFAnnual Barnardo's Health The King's Fund

As leaders in health inequalities you need two things (1) Hope and (2) The courage to take a leap of faith. Nicci Briggs #KFAnnual The King's Fund Barnardo's Health

Don’t fall into the trap of being data rich and insight poor. The numbers tell us the who and where but stories tell us the “why”. Samira Ben Omar #KFAnnual The King's Fund Barnardo's Health

Realising the prevention agenda- a focus on children and young peoples health with Rukshana Kapasi💚 from Barnardo's Health at The King's Fund #KFAnnual

Worsening needs and worsening inequalities. Why are childrens waiting lists growing so quickly? A child who waits 2 years for a neurodevelopmental assessment will struggle to make up that time and catch up. Rukshana Kapasi💚 #KFAnnual Barnardo's Health

A majority of strategies have not considered children with long term needs and SEN. There has been an investment in acute services in children but we need that funding earlier on in the process #KFAnnual Barnardo's Health Rukshana Kapasi💚

Recent Institute of fiscal studies report- children attending sure start centres (early intervention) had long term positive impacts up to and including their GCSE results. Early support matters! #KFAnnual Barnardo's Health Rukshana Kapasi💚

Children are being crowded out Rukshana Kapasi💚 Children and young people “hardly feature at all” in most board meetings- Dr Nadeem Moghal #KFAnnual Barnardo's Health

“Children and young people need the same parity of esteem as adults” including for waiting list times- Patrick Vernon Birmingham and Solihull ICB #KFAnnual Barnardo's Health

Is your service meeting your needs as a healthcare professional? Or really meeting the needs of the children and young people you serve? Dr Nadeem Moghal #KFAnnual Barnardo's Health
