Draft Black Country Plan

Representation ID: 10770

Respondent: Mr John Batchelor

Representation Summary:

Walsall is a particularly unequal borough in terms of health outcomes. Investment and intervention is needed in the poorer areas such as Blakenhall, Ryecroft and Coalpool where healthy lifestyles are almost extinct. Healthier communities can only be developed with a radical policy to improve areas with the worst records and that surely is a moral duty.
