Dear All
We are pleased to announce the launch of the North West Ethnic Health
Information Website : www.ethnichealth-northwest.net
The site has been developed by the North West Public Health Observatory
with support from the Department of Health, Ethnic Health Section of the
Equality Strategy Directorate. It aims to provide access to:
* Listings of local ethnic and community groups
* Information on health problems affecting minority ethnic groups
* Reports on ethnic health issues and projects to address them
* Data on demographics and prevalence of health problems
* Information on immigration, asylum and equal opportunities legislation
* Listings of local services for minority ethnic groups
* Access to ethnic health information forums
* Information about different religions and cultures
We hope the site will act as an information gateway on health issues
relating to minority ethnic communities; facilitate the exchange of
information between local groups working to improve ethnic health and
provide a useful resource for community members.
The site is an on-going project and we are always grateful for suggestions
of additional materials to include or other ways in which the site can be
improved. For further information, please contact Katharine Abba on
