Some reflections on a couple of sessions I attended at #Lab25 ➡️ There was a big uptick in health-related economic inactivity across Europe ➡️ A large rise in younger people with mental health problems ➡️ Inactivity fell to pre-pandemic levels across Europe but not in the UK ➡️

Really looking forward to speaking at today's @TheKingsFund conference on the 10 Year Health Plan. For me, the key success measure is whether care looks & feels different for patients. #KF10YearPlan

Connecting people into vital information and support when they are diagnosed with a health condition is vital. We're proud to be part of the @RichmondGroupOC and to see this important step towards better-connected care.
Patients will be connected to specialist charities as soon as they've been diagnosed with a long-term health condition, starting next year. This new service means expert advice, emotional support and practical help from day one, alongside NHS care. More: https://t.co/DIJjZ6CQUp
