  • 56: Are neighbourhoods the real answer to better health? – with Hilary Armstrong and Andrew O’Brien

    56: Are neighbourhoods the real answer to better health? – with Hilary Armstrong and Andrew O’Brien
    2025/07/11
    Our surroundings play a big role in shaping our health. And some neighbourhoods – including so-called ‘left behind areas’ – can be tough places to live, with limited economic opportunity, low levels of social mobility and social capital, and poorer health. All this contributes to people in the most deprived areas on average living 19 fewer years in good health than people in the least deprived.

    The government is pursuing a range of initiatives to boost the fortunes of deprived neighbourhoods, including a national plan for neighbourhoods, extending devolution and directing more infrastructure investment towards struggling areas. But has government understood the value of social capital in rebuilding communities? What are the lessons of past government initiatives focused on neighbourhood renewal and left behind communities? And can the concept of ‘neighbourhood health’ help to improve health and reduce entrenched inequalities?

    To discuss, our Chief Executive Dr Jennifer Dixon is joined by:

    • Hilary Armstrong, Chair of the Independent Commission on Neighbourhoods (ICON), and former New Labour cabinet minister and MP for North West Durham.
    • Andrew O’Brien, Head of Secretariat at ICON.

  • 55: When work isn’t working: tackling the UK’s sickness problem – with Jon Ashworth and Sacha Romanovitch

    55: When work isn’t working: tackling the UK’s sickness problem – with Jon Ashworth and Sacha Romanovitch
    2025/05/27
    8.2 million working-age people report having a long-term health condition that limits their ability to work. 1.7 million say that work itself is making them ill or creating challenges. In addition to causing personal hardships, this decline in working-age health is causing concern among employers, politicians and policymakers.

    With the benefits bill rising, government has set its sights on wide-ranging welfare reforms, including significant changes to health and disability benefits. Are these reforms likely to incentivise and support people back into work? And how can the system intervene earlier and support employers to provide people with the flexibility they need to stay in work in the first place?

    To discuss, our Chief Executive Jennifer Dixon is joined by:

    • Jon Ashworth, Chief Executive of Labour Together and former shadow Secretary of State for Health and Social Care and for Work and Pensions.
    • Sacha Romanovitch, Chair of the Commission for Healthier Working Lives, which is supported by the Health Foundation.

  • 54: Abolishing NHS England: a chat with outgoing chair Richard Meddings

    54: Abolishing NHS England: a chat with outgoing chair Richard Meddings
    2025/05/06
    ‘Today we are abolishing the biggest quango in the world,’ – Wes Streeting, 13 March 2025

    Many people were surprised by the government’s decision to abolish NHS England and fold its functions into the Department of Health and Social Care. Not least Richard Meddings, Chair of NHS England since 2022. Having formally completed his term in March, Richard joins our Chief Executive Jennifer Dixon to discuss.

    In a wide-ranging conversation, Richard reflects on his time at NHS England and how the organisation has changed. With the NHS facing growing demand for care, and continuing to top the public’s list of priorities, where does the forthcoming 10-year health plan need to focus? How should ministers lead the service in the future? And what needs to happen to ensure the NHS reaches its 100th year?
