About us

The Fairer, Healthier Liverpool (FHL) Partnership leads Liverpool’s local Marmot City approach. It’s a group of different organisations working together to improve the building blocks of health in the city. Their work directly supports the Liverpool Health and Wellbeing Board.​

We are creating a fairer, healthier Liverpool by:

  • Driving collective action across the Marmot Eight Principles.​
  • Strengthening partnerships between public, private and third sector organisations.​
  • Involving communities in the identification of the drivers of poor health and in the design and implementation of actions to reduce them​.​
  • Monitoring what is happening locally and taking proactive, preventive action. ​
  • Supporting leadership and advocacy on health equity.​

The partnership has focused on two main goals:

  • improving health through housing
  • improving health through income

These goals will guide the first two years of the FHL partnership.

In April 2025, Liverpool became a Marmot City. The partnership will work on all five priorities to address health inequalities and improve the community’s well-being.
