The events are a great opportunity to meet some of the people making a difference in this exciting field, and to get more involved with the health and work agenda.
Dame Carol Black:
"I believe the recent measures unveiled by the Government will help make our society a healthier and happier one, where everyone recognises the link between good health and good work. The Government has taken this first important step and now we need to work in partnership with business leaders, employers, health professionals and individuals to change attitudes and behaviours."
