Throughout summer 2020, Birmingham and Solihull Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG), in partnership with Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council (SMBC), held an engagement exercise on access to health issues faced by communities across Birmingham and Solihull during the pandemic.

It sought, in particular, to engage groups affected especially adversely by the COVID-19 pandemic.  It was noted, after an equality analysis, that many of these were groups with ‘protected characteristics’ under equality legislation.
