Describe the differences in social deprivation in England and how this relates to health

Firstly, you would begin by defining what is meant by social deprivation. You would have to look at the Index of Multiple Deprivation and what factors that looks at - education, access to healthcare, infant mortality, average income, housing. You could then highlight the differences in England - e.g. the known North/South divide in terms of wealth and how this affects health by looking at figures from northern cities vs southern cities and also urban vs rural. You could also focus on one particular area such as the Kensington and Chelsea borough where there is extreme social disparities with the example of Grenfell Tower. All the social deprivation factors must lead back to how they impact health.
