COVID-19 pandemic has brought health & racial inequalities into even sharper focus than before. The review is a driver for what must be achieved. There are many causal factors which impact on people’s lives which must be addressed. We're going to be looking at both race & racism.

It’s important our focus is on where the greatest harm takes place, the long standing inequalities & importantly doing something about them. It’s essential we find a way to ensure this work is shared & people’s voices are heard.
