NHS, local authority and voluntary sector staff are working harder than ever to get services back on track, to get waiting lists down and consistently deliver the best care.
We know change is needed. But we also know that many of the solutions we need are already here, working somewhere in the NHS today. In Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire we are already doing great work in this area and are supporting the NHS to tackle these challenges head on.
We also know there is much more to do, which is why we are playing our part in the consultation for the 10-Year Health Plan alongside the government, and we want to hear from you — patients, their families and the wider public — about your NHS story.
Whether you have a little to say or a lot, your views, experiences and ideas will shape immediate steps and long-term changes: a new 10-Year Health Plan for the NHS.
This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to make the NHS fit for the future.
