The Director of Public Health (DPH) has a statutory requirement, under the Health and Social Care Act 2012, to produce an annual report detailing the health of the population. The purpose of this report is to provide insight into the health of people in Swindon.
The 2023 report focuses on the impact of housing and health. It considers some of the societal, financial, and environmental impacts of poor housing on health, offering an overview of some of the challenges locally as well as the work that is being done to reduce inequalities in access to housing.
The report is available to view or download from the DPH Annual Reports website page.
