It is defined as protecting the population from communicable (also known as infectious or transmissible) disease and non-infectious environmental hazards such as chemicals and radiation. The lead agency for managing the health protection function is the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA), however, local authority public health teams, and wider system partners, also have a key role to play. Additionally, legislation such as the Health Protection Regulations 2010, place obligations on a range of agencies, including local authority, to act in accordance with law, to ensure the spread of infectious disease is prevented. Ensuring residents of Wolverhampton remain healthy and safe is a key priority outlined within the Council plan where it is recognised City of Wolverhampton Council (CWC) has a key role to fulfil in protecting the most vulnerable with the right care and support.
