We have created an area of this website for people wishing to comment on the White Paper who are unable to come to the consultation events. Please click here.
The White Paper on Health has the potential to create one of the biggest changes to the structure and function of the NHS since its creation in 1948. Within the White Paper there are 5 consultations which are all open until early October.
During September, Regional Voices will be hosting events in 9 locations across the country for the third sector.
These will give you the opportunity to learn more about the proposed changes through the White Paper as well as having the chance to attend three interactive consultation workshops during the day to discuss issues in depth and to provide feedback directly to those leading on the consultations from the Department of Health.
The events will:
- Raise awareness of the proposed changes and stimulate informed response to the consultations
- Help third sector, patient, service user, carers and community organisations understand how the White Paper will impact on their work and the opportunities it presents.
- Identify some of the cross cutting issues of particular relevance to the sector
- Provide a forum to develop understanding of the role of the Third Sector in emerging health structures
- Provide direct feedback to the Department of Health on the consultation areas
