Sheffield Director of Public Health Reports & Joint Strategic Needs Assessment

Past, Present, Future - Sheffield Director of Public Health Report

September 2011.

In this year's report for Sheffield we look back to the early 1970s (when Public Health was last in a local authority) and note the big improvements in health since then; we then summarise our current work and the outcomes being achieved. Finally we identify the opportunities and challenges for improving health and tackling health inequalities in the future. We also publish up to date health and well being profiles for Sheffield's 28 electoral wards and 7 community assemblies.
