- The “biggest ever conversation” about the future of the NHS has started! 👩⚕️ The government has promised to put in place a 10 Year Health Plan to fix the NHS in England. ❤️🩹 Take our survey and register your views as part of the ‘Change NHS’ consultation:- wtru.st/change-NHS

- When the positive impact on our health & wellbeing is so well known we strongly believe the NHS should incorporate nature into their plans. 🌳 Your views matter and can help shape a new Health Plan for England which includes nature! 🌱 The survey :- wtru.st/change-NHS - Thank you! ❤️
