The main finding of this report is that social disadvantage is a key determinant of health outcomes and processes, underlining the central importance of ensuring that health services do their part to tackle inequalities associated with child and family poverty. In addition, there is evidence of variation across Community Health (and Care) Partnership areas which cannot be explained by poverty. This variation is likely to arise as a result of different approaches to policy or practice, including recording of health information. Such variation should be minimised as it has the potential to widen inequalities and makes the interpretation of surveillance data difficult. The Healthy Children Programme is outlined as the service response to tackling child poverty and reducing variation across services.Publisher
