West Midlands Clean Air Day Reception

The Event

Poor air quality is the largest environmental risk to public health in the UK, causing 36,000 deaths each year in the UK. Air pollution is a public health crisis and requires a health sector approach. Long-term exposure to air pollution can cause chronic conditions such as cardiovascular and respiratory diseases as well as lung cancer, leading to reduced life expectancy.

Join the Birmingham Healthy Air Coalition (BHAC), the West Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA), and Sandwell and West Birmingham NHS Trust for an inspiring evening celebrating Clean Air Day. This event aims to boost awareness of air quality and highlight the impactful work happening locally.
