Really great to hear from @EdgeDawn about the @cafistudy followed by a useful conversation on steps towards tackling racial inequality with @SMFthinktank & many others doing work in this space. Less talk, more action remains a key takeaway.

Are you from South Asian, African, or Caribbean background? You could be a Community Research Champion! People from ethnic minority backgrounds tend not to take part in health research. Help us change this & improve treatments. More info below 👇 #ResearchGMMH
