The Major Conditions Strategy will apply a geographical lens to each condition in order to address regional disparities in health outcomes, supporting the levelling up mission to narrow the gap by 2030.

The Strategy will cover prevention to treatment for all six conditions and we will continue to work closely with stakeholders, citizens and the National Health Service in coming weeks to identify actions that will have the most impact.
