OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Local government has a long history of promoting public health. This includes children’s, housing, cultural, environmental and planning services, as well as specific public health and social care services. Investment in each of these areas has been cut over the past decade and cut most in the places where need is greatest, reversing the trend of the previous decade.
Whilst this was a disaster for many who rely on these services this natural experiment has enabled a greater understanding of the importance of investment in local government for public health. This talk will outline our research, over the past 10 years investigating the health impact of local government services and the implications for future strategies to reduce regional inequalities in England.
