Coastal residents in England and Wales face worse midlife health
A new study reveals people living by the coast in England and Wales are more likely to have multiple long-term health conditions like cancer, diabetes, and depression. The trend is due to higher deprivation and people with poorer health staying in or moving to these areas. Researchers are now calling for targeted public health and economic support for these deprived coastal communities.
