The Richmond Group of Charities has published Millions more moving, a report informed by lived experience insights on how national policymakers can tackle inactivity by supporting people with long-term conditions to move more. It sets out three ‘shifts’ in the policy landscape that will help maximise the role of movement in health.
A blog discussing research conducted by MEL into the impact of the cost of living crisis for people with living long-term health conditions and disibilty.
This report draws together data, insight and patient stories from The Richmond Group’s 12 member charities, with wider evidence, about the impact of the pandemic on people living with long-term, chronic or complex illnesses, who were amongst the hardest hit and still now find themselves lagging far behind in terms of recovering their health and well-being. Our analysis highlights the issues for this group of people before the pandemic, the impact of the pandemic and cost-of-living crisis, and the ongoing and long-term effects.
