How does investment in prevention of future ill-health benefit society?
Local and national economic growth impact studies have found that for every £1 spent on prevention of future ill-health, a £14 benefit is realised across society. Precise figures will vary, but we know this benefit is real and accrues in many different areas, including individuals, the local economy and in reduced demand for public services. This is facilitated by support and investment nationally, but can only be realised by engaging with people where they live, work and play: in our neighbourhoods and communities.
