In 2022 new data was released to show health inequality in the UK has grown with nearly a decade gap in healthy life expectancy for men between the poorest and richest areas.4 Additionally, women in the poorest areas of England have shorter life expectancies than most of their counterparts across the OECD.5
This is why sectors contributing to health such as pharmacies, dentistry, care facilities and services are more critical to support than ever.

“Unity’s ethos resonated with me; it’s a bank that wants to lend to businesses that make a positive difference in the community and that is to be celebrated.
Providing an essential service and helping people is very important to me and it’s nice to know you have a lender that cares about you as a business, and cares about what you are providing as a business.”
Daniel Ferrie Ferrie Healthcare
“I like the fact that Unity Trust Bank helps people who help other people. Dentistry is a business but we’re also helping people with their teeth and self-esteem.
"Some lenders just see things from a business point of view, but Unity are very supportive of what we’re trying to achieve. I also like the personal service they offer.”
