Public Health
Sefton's Public Health team work to protect and improve health and wellbeing and reduce health inequalities of local Sefton residents.
Health is not only about hospital services and general practice, it has a much wider definition that includes the environment, employment, housing and education all of which have an impact on health and wellbeing throughout the life course.
We ensure that health and wellbeing are at the heart of everything the council does and work with local GPs, dentists and hospitals to help them identify, prioritise, and address health needs.
