Where are we on health?

One big shift in the NHS Long Term Plan, even if not generously funded, is the full-on embracing of social prescribing, says Dan Corry. He believes it has the potential to have a big impact on people’s health.

While we in the policy world sink deeper and deeper into the mire of Brexit and new political groupings, it is important to remember that most people continue to go about their lives entirely normally.

While we are worried about stockpiling and body bags, normal people are worried about normal things, and for most of us, this means our health. Health provision may have slipped down the list of the public's key concerns, but it still dominates much of our lives.
