A NEW director of public health has been jointly appointed by Hampshire Primary Care Trust and the county council.
Jean Bradlow brings experience as a director of public health elsewhere in the NHS and a background in health services research.
Hampshire PCT chief executive, Gareth Cruddace, said: "I am delighted to welcome Jean to this important role, leading the two authorities to work together to improve wellbeing and health, reduce inequalities and tackle the underlying causes of poor health.
"Jean will also develop important links with other stakeholders such as district councils."
