At the HEALTHCARE COMMUNICATIONS ASSOCIATION’s annual conference today we heard stark data and joined passionate conversation about health inequity. Here's a few eye-opening points we heard from Tammy Boyce and Stephen Walcott: ♦ Social determinants account for up to 80% of health outcomes ♦ To eat healthily using the government’s Eat Well approach would take half your income if on a minimum wage salary ♦ Being a long-term renter can have an impact on biological age ♦ Women’s life expectancy in deprived areas is in decline ♦ Institutional racism and bias means Black and Asian women’s pain is not taken as seriously ♦ Men and women in the most deprived areas have a ‘healthy life’ expectancy of 52 vs 70 in the richest areas We discussed how we as communicators can play our part in developing programmes that take consideration of what we heard and the barriers faced. Delighted to sponsor this event. Thank you to all speakers, panels and to the HCA for inviting Virgo’s Sarah Gordon and Natasha Weeks to talk.

Last night we hosted Marianna Spring, BBC Disinformation and Social Media Correspondent and author of Among The Trolls. She shared extraordinary insight into her experiences investigating disinformation and what drives people to believe in conspiracies. Covering everything from the behaviours that lead to the spread of disinformation to the power of social media companies and their algorithms, that can popularise disinformation shared by a highly-engaged few. Fascinating to hear about the social media personas she has built for the election too, and the limited content each feed receives and how that plays into biases. Huge thank you to Marianna, who also had to be on Radio 4 this morning at 6:45am! If you are interested to learn more, link to buy her new book in the comments.
