Health protection hub

Welcome to the health protection hub, a resource for professionals working across Nottinghamshire. Health protection is a term for protecting the population from infectious diseases, hazards and potential threats. The hub provides guidance and answers to common questions about health protection issues. You can also find more information on the health and wellbeing pages of our website.

We have established a network of advocates across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire to help share messages about local health protection issues. It does not require a formal or regular commitment, just a willingness to share messages within a local network such as a voluntary or community group, workforce or sports club.

If you would like to join the network, please complete the Health Protection Advocate Form and we will be in touch.
