The Healthy London Partnership has been focusing on tackling health inequalities, including those in cancer screening.

The PHE Screening team

Public Health England (PHE) existed to protect and improve the nation’s health and wellbeing, and reduce health inequalities. It closed on 30 September 2021 and this blog is no longer updated.
