  a matter of social justice. In developing strategies for tackling health 
 inequalities we need to confront the social gradient in health not just th
 e difference between the worst off and everybody else.  There is clear evi
 dence when we look across countries that national policies make a differen
 ce and that much can be done in cities\, towns and local areas. But polici
 es and interventions must not be confined to the health care system\; they
  need to address the conditions in which people are born\, grow\, live\, w
 ork and age.  The evidence shows that economic circumstances are important
  but are not the only drivers of health inequalities. Tackling the health 
 gap will take action\, based on sound evidence\, across the whole of socie
 ty.\n
