| Annotation | The authors explore how Standard 8 of the NSF for Older People can help local services and communities address the health inequalities agenda. They introduce the initiatives being undertaken by eight pilot sites participating in the Pre-Retirement Health Check Pilots Initiative (PRHI) managed by the Health Development Agency, and share some of the emerging themes from their work. They reflect on the links between the work of the pilots and the requirements of Standard 8, as well as the wider policy and practice implications for sustaining this work beyond the life of the project.
