Have your say about the future of the NHS in England 

The UK Government recently launched the biggest ever conversation on the future of the NHS in England — and they want to hear from you.   

On the Change NHS website, there is a survey to gather feedback that is open to everyone. Whether you are a member of the public, or someone who works in health and care in England, your views, experiences, and ideas will help to shape the government’s new ‘10-year plan’ to rebuild and strengthen the NHS. Here is what they have to say about it:

“The NHS has been there for us for over 76 years. But to make sure the NHS is here for the next 76 years, doing all it can to support the health of everyone, we need your help.” 

With your support, Macmillan Cancer Support has been keeping up the pressure on MPs as they get started or return to their offices following the election, calling on them to prioritise cancer care.

Now we have a big opportunity to make sure they hear directly from people with, and affected by, cancer about what needs to happen. Whether you have a lot to say or only a little, our collective contributions could help transform cancer care, so we want to make sure they hear directly from as many of us as possible.

You can share your views via a survey on the Change NHS website. It will take you around ten minutes to complete and you can access the survey by following these steps: 

1. Visit Change NHS website
2. Click on Start here
3. Click the Get started button  
4. Sign up with your name and email address 
5. It will ask you to complete your profile. You can select one of the options or skip this step. 
6. Click continue to be directed to the survey. 
7. You will now be asked a series of questions about the NHS, some of which you can skip if you would prefer not to answer. 
8. When you have answered all the questions you want to answer, click the submit button. 
   
   

Share your views on the NHS

Once you have completed the survey, why not ask two more people who you think could add their own experiences? Simply share the change.nhs.uk and tell them why you think it is important for them to share their ideas and views.
