Health and social care
Welcome to the Health and Social Care homepage
Healthcare and social care are important public services that all of us need at some time during our lives.
The National Health Service (NHS), through hospitals and other healthcare trusts, provides treatment, services and advice to people who are ill or have had an accident, and to help them stay healthy. Social care covers a wide range of services and support provided by local authorities and other organisations to help the most vulnerable people in society live as independently as possible.
Local Involvement Networks (LINks) are the new way to give local people a say in their health and social care services
