So many of us helping to build good health in our communities! Last chance to come and share what you’re doing to improve health The Health Foundation at the @LGACong23

This week the Public Health Minister stated "We have taken firm action to tackle gambling-related harms through our White Paper, which includes our commitment to introduce a statutory levy so gambling companies pay their fair share towards the costs of treatment services.” 🧵

I don’t know what’s going on at the Financial Times, but I like it! 👏👏👏 ft.com/content/0500d4…

Finally made it to The Clink Charity in brixton this evening- amazing food, great service and a brilliant cause - would highly recommend! Only criticism would be nowhere to lock your bike nearby- would be good to have some bike racks available :)

Our homes are a fundamental building block for health. The Renters’ Reform Bill is a step in the right direction, but needs to address housing security, quality, affordability and supply problems that drive inequalities in health. 👇New piece in BMJ bmj.com/content/382/bm…

Robert Jenrick: Restore cartoons at children's asylum centres! chng.it/KFjMnkQp via Change.org UK Probably fair to say we’re not in danger of being ‘too welcoming’ for children asylum seekers arriving in UK- beyond belief that MPs think this is how we should spend money

Huge news from government on ambitions to create a smoke free generation, raising the age of purchasing tobacco, by one year every year. 🧵

Just published - a The Health Foundation framework exploring what local authorities in England can do to address harms from tobacco, alcohol and junk food

This new quit smoking ad from GM is so powerful. I confess to some tears when I was first shown it during a Teams meeting last month. Smoking is uniquely harmful. So many of us have lost loved ones before their time. What a gift a smokefree future would be for all of us.

Come join us at The Health Foundation!! We're looking for two SpRs to join the team as soon as possible. We've loads to get involved in over the coming months - including election planning. Get in touch with any questions, and please share widely. Faculty of Public Health Maggie Rae Kevin Fenton

I urge UK Health Alliance on Climate Change to immediately cancel their green washing event tmr with the former Head of Group Technology in BP, discussing the "role of oil and gas companies" in the "energy mix". This event goes against all scientific and ethical principles. ukhealthalliance.org/events/oil-and…

A great day at Westminster with Eden&Partners and the Welsh contingent of Faculty of Medical Leadership and Management today!

Today Adfree Cities launches new research revealing that people living in more deprived areas are disproportionately exposed to outdoor advertising & the UK’s planning system is too outdated to help 🧵 #OurSpaceNotAdSpace Thanks to @hark_films for the video!

Time to register to vote 🗳️ #GeneralElection gov.uk/register-to-vo…

We’re shocked and angered by moves to block Faiza and others from running in this election. Faiza is a fierce campaigner and champion of the Green New Deal and our generation - she’s exactly the kind of person who should be leading the way in Parliament. Solidarity.
