  hybrid event\, will explore the current challenges and opportunities in t
 ackling health inequalities - unfair and avoidable differences in health s
 haped by socioeconomic status\, housing\, education\, and employment. Thei

  How can councils tackle the growing health inequality gap and improve out
 comes for their most vulnerable communities?\n 	Challenges: Are councils
  adequately equipped to address health inequalities? What barriers do they
  face in delivering change?\n 	Opportunities: How can councils best use lo
 cal data\, community engagement and political will to create lasting impr
 ovements in health outcomes?\n\nTheir Smith Square Debates held in their 
 Westminster office (SW1P 3HZ) are lively discussions on topics as wide-ran
 ging as artificial intelligence\, spending reviews\, climate change and de
