Wider determinants of health (2012)
Key Messages
The Public Health Wales Observatory has published a series of health board reports which present a number of indicators relating to the wider determinants of health.
Health is affected positively and negatively by many factors which interact to produce different patterns of health across different communities. These health board reports have been produced by the Public Health Wales Observatory specifically to show variation at small area level in such indicators within health boards and their constituent local authorities.
