A unique opportunity to hear from some of the leading voices on health inequalities, respiratory health and public policy.

Join us on 22 September, 12:00pm-1:30pm, for a timely discussion on the impact of health inequalities on lung health in Wales and across the UK.

We're delighted to welcome Professor Sir Michael Marmot, internationally renowned expert on health inequalities, alongside speakers from Asthma + Lung UK, to explore why lung disease is one of the starkest examples of health inequality in action.

Lung disease is both a disease of deprivation. The factors that drive poor lung health, including poverty, poor housing, air pollution, smoking prevalence and unequal access to healthcare, disproportionately affect our most deprived communities.

We'll also hear a Wales-focused perspective examining why Wales has the highest death rate from lung disease in the UK and Western Europe, what the evidence tells us about the causes, and what action is needed to change the picture.

The event will conclude with reflections from political representatives from across the political spectrum.
