Annotation	One of the messages from the conference summarised here is that partnerships at local, regional and national level are essential if inequalities are to be tackled. Moreover, local people - especially those in disadvantaged communities - need to be more involved in action and decision-making on health and the policies affecting health. Priority groups identified include black and minority ethnic communities and disabled Londoners. Speakers' presentations at the conference, held on 14 November 2002, are available at www.londonshealth.gov.uk/conf2002.htm. (RH).
