NWPHO is an integrated
part of public health intelligence both within the Centre for Public Health
at Liverpool John Moores University and across the North West region as a
whole. We work with a wide range of agencies whose activities influence the
health of the population of the North West and we have a range of joint work
programmes with these partners. We are also part of the Association of
Public Health Observatories that helps coordinate activities across PHOs in
England, Wales, Ireland and Scotland.
