Personal Health Budgets

You may have seen a lot of coverage today on personal health budgets, we responded to this story over the weekend with this statement.

As the online news this morning demonstrated, we were in a large number of national papers this morning, as well as on Radio Four’s Today programme, ITV, BBC1 bulletins (will be on 6pm and 10pm news), BBC News Channel, Sky News (twice), LBC (twice), Five Live and well over a dozen regional BBC programmes. You can retweet our statement here if you haven’t already done so. If you have done any regional broadcasts do let us know and feel free to get in touch if you need a briefing on this subject.

Tomorrow morning, Peter Holden will be appearing on BBC1’s Breakfast programme for a piece on the crisis facing rural GPs.

Kind regards

Paul Gadsby
