Share Your Views: NHS 10-Year Plan

The government has launched 'Change NHS: help build a health service fit for the future' to have the biggest ever conversation about the future of the NHS. The 10-Year Plan wants to shift healthcare from hospitals to local communities, use more digital technology, and focus on preventing illnesses instead of just treating them when they happen.

The NHS can only be made fit for the future if we learn from your experiences as members of the public who see directly what's working and what's going wrong. Similar to events being delivered across the country, Healthwatch Kensington and Chelsea, Healthwatch Westminster and Healthwatch Brent are hosting events to create a conversation with the local community about the future of healthcare, in partnership with the North West London Integrated Care Board.

These events will include people from all backgrounds and with lots of different experiences. The views and experiences that are shared will be brought together with what people say at other events and used to shape the 10 Year Health Plan, which also influences local health care priorities. 

The events are open to all people living in North West London as well as community representatives and are a great opportunity to have your voice heard and share your thoughts on the direction of the NHS. Don't miss out on your chance to be part of the conversation! 

If you cannot attend either of these events but would still like to participate in the public consultation, you can do so at https://change.nhs.uk/en-GB.
