Really engaging talk from @CheungRonny at #RCPCH24 about changing the evidence into practice. Focusing on how understanding the real world & people is fundamental to successfully bring about change. Doctors are the worst at adhering to guidelines even when we agree w principles!

“Poverty is not inevitable. It is a political choice” - a sobering and powerful keynote address by Sir @MichaelMarmot. Proud to have a college @RCPCHtweets that quite rightly highlights child poverty at the forefront of #RCPCH24

1 million children live in destitution. 1 in 5 households with children are food insecure. Poverty is worsening health inequalities and poorer education outcomes - Sir Michael Marmot. Government must take action and invest in our children’s futures. #RCPCH24 #ShiftTheDial
