Health Equals

Help us change the law to close the life expectancy gap

In some parts of the UK, people are dying up to 18 years earlier than in others. That’s not just bad luck or down to individual choices – it's because too many people don’t have access to the basics that help us stay healthy. And in the last decade, our nation's health has declined and inequalities have widened even further.

That’s why we’re campaigning to make better health a national priority.

Change is possible if the government does more to take these problems seriously. We now have a chance to change the law to drive coordinated action on health inequalities across government. 

Use your voice to ask your MP to support Health Equals’ campaign to close the UK's 18-year life expectancy gap and give everyone a fair chance of a healthy life.
