Public Health Network Cymru (PHNC)
Public Health Network Cymru (PHNC) was established in 2015 for professionals working on improving the health and wellbeing of the population of Wales and combined four previous topic specific networks which were hosted by Public Health Wales.
The Network now has over 3,000 members from a range of sectors and organisations including the NHS, Local Authorities, Welsh Government, academia, third sector and private sector. The Network covers a broad spectrum of topics including prevention in healthcare, health-related behaviours, mental wellbeing and has a focus on the wider determinants of health – housing, education, employment, income and resources and the environment.
