Health Assets

A health asset is any factor or resource which enhances the ability of individuals, communities and populations to maintain and sustain health and wellbeing and to help to reduce health inequalities.
A good education helps build strong foundations for accessing good work and life-long learning and problem solving. This can lead for better employment and income. The contribution of education on long term health can trigger healthier futures, mitigate social stressors and provide access to employment opportunities and life chances that could protect individuals from later-life disadvantage.
