People in parts of the UK are dying up to 18 years earlier than others. MPs vote on amendments to the Health Bill this week that could write action on health inequalities into law. Ask your MP back this, and to support the @healthequals.bsky.social campaign: act.healthequals.org.uk/page/152177/...

Over the last decade, our nation's health has gone backwards. Inequalities have widened, and for some of us, that means the average life expectancy in our postcode is as low as 70 years.

As the weather gets cooler, damp and mould become more and more prevalent as warm air from daily life, such as cooking, washing and breathing, meets cold air forming condensation. With less air flow due to closed windows to keep warm, moisture becomes trapped inside, worsening these issues.
