We’ve pulled together a comprehensive evidence pack that sets out the evidence of what works to address health inequalities through the actions of health care organisations. 

It is structured around four interconnected themes that emerged as core to equity in health and care:

  1. Patient-led, inclusive culture
  2. Equity-focused systems
  3. Enabling partnerships
  4. Equitable structures

Despite the challenges of building a definitive evidence base in this area, there are clear, recurring principles that emerge across services, populations, and conditions. This pack presents those principles alongside real-world examples and practical recommendations.
