Such an important session. Weight stigma & dehumanising treatment have been a heartbreaking feature of all my qualitative research on obesity. We must do better #peoplefirst #ukco2023

First keynote at #bsphn24 is Sir Michael Marmot absolutely telling it like it is when it comes to over ten years of not just inaction on reducing health inequalities by government, but exacerbating these by reducing spending on the most deprived people in our society.

Lively panel discussion now at #bsphn24 Sir Michael Marmot making the point that people canโ€™t make considered decisions from a position of scarcity. Matt Ashton advising to ask the question, how can we serve othersโ€™ priorities, to make ourselves valuable & important within the system
