The NHS has set ambitious net zero goals, but they will only be met if sustainability is built into core policy, care delivery and accountability. We brought senior leaders together to discuss how to strengthen accountability for a net-zero NHS. Read more ⬇️ bit.ly/4oyMoLY

The NHS has legally binding sustainability targets. But as it reorganises, accountability for meeting them is becoming less clear. New research from @kingsfund.bsky.social and CSH sets out 10 recommendations for national policymakers. Read the report: bit.ly/4cznCG9

This @hsj.co.uk piece from @chrisbnaylor.bsky.social totally nails it- lots of good stuff on CVD prevention in the 10 Year Health Plan but will only have impact if accompanied by some radical shifts in incentives including fiscal levers. www.hsj.co.uk/policy-and-r...

🧵Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is responsible for 25% of UK premature deaths. Up to 80% of these deaths are preventable. It’s estimated that the burden of CVD costs £29 billion each year. But CVD prevention is not currently being prioritised by the government at the scale needed.

Great piece from @healthfoundation.bsky.social on the opportunity for the government's 10 year health plan to help deliver net zero and build a climate-resilient NHS - and the risk of that opportunity being missed: www.health.org.uk/features-and...

The Government Wants a ‘Neighbourhood Health Service’. The First Step is to Agree What That Means.
Does a neighbourhood health service mean different things to different people? Chris Naylor argues that there needs to be a common understanding of what the goal is.
