Annual Review 2024

People’s Health Trust’s Annual Review for 2023/24 is out now, showing stories of the significant impact we and our funded partners are making to improve people’s lives and health.

Since 2011 People’s Health Trust has partnered with a vibrant network of over 3,500 community organisations across Great Britain, supporting them with funding at a grassroots level to find vital and timely solutions to tackle the causes of poor health.

So far, we have reached almost 800,000 marginalised people experiencing disadvantage and we are making an impact across the building blocks of health. This annual review demonstrates our work tackling health inequalities across our Health Justice Fund priorities, in critical areas that shape our health including our homes, good work and access to nature.

John Hume, Chief Executive, and Jenny Edwards, Chair of Trustees said:

"Over 13 years we have supported, listened, and learned from communities, when they tell us what works to make a difference. We grant-fund communities to tackle health and improve wellbeing. And we bring people together to learn from each other and provide expertise on issues of critical importance to health in their area. These channels of communication mean we can also measure impact and influence local and national policymakers. The stories you will read throughout this report are a testament to this.

The scale of the health inequalities faced by communities remains immense. Many approach us, and requests for funding far outstrip available funds. We are building new partnerships with corporate, public and third sector to help expand our reach. Join us if you want to be part of the drive to stop people dying too young."
