In collaboration with NHS England and Improvement, Public Health England & Champs Public Health Collaboative, C & M Health & Care Partnership have implemented a research project to provide an in-depth understanding of the impact of Covid-19 has had on BAME communities.

By producing this report, it is hoped that the information learnt will help bolster wellbeing and reduce health inequalities across the regions. With these new insights, interventions will be able to be more targeted and effective for different ethnic groups.

With this report, each locality will have a better understanding of the ethnic makeup of their population so that place-based interventions can thrive. Place-based interventions are thought to provide more thorough and efficeint care. Professor Chris Bentley, a Non-Executive Director and Wirral Community Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust has discussed the benefits of place-based approaches to health inequalities; watch his presentation here.

The full ethnicity profile report is available now to read.
