| Annotation | The Marmot indicators were set up following publication in 2010 of 'Fair society, healthy lives' (the Marmot review), a government commissioned review of health inequalities. The indicators track progress on key policy recommendations made to reduce health, social and environmental inequalities. The UCL Institute of Health Equity periodically analyses the indicators to monitor progress and raise issue of concern. This press release and a presentation ('Inequalities Update' by Michael Marmot, Angela Donkin, and Peter Goldblatt http://www.instituteofhealthequity.org/file-manage... highlight areas of interest and the Institute's reaction to the latest available data in 'Health profile for England' (Public Health England, PHE). These point to a squeeze on health services, an increase in dementia deaths as life expectancy increases falter, and inequalities within and between local authorities. The reader is also directed to Marmot Indicators on the PHE fingertips website. (https://fingertips.phe.org.uk/profile-group/marmot), where there are links to Marmot Indicators for local authorities (2014 and 2015), the Wider Determinants of Health tool (2016-), and Indicators on healthy life expectancy and life expectancy, based on the 2011 Census.
