While national approaches are being adopted, we also want to focus on healthcare delivery at the local level.

- we will engage with local people and their healthcare providers to increase awareness of these medical conditions and ensure that appropriate services are made available.
- we will also be engaging on behalf of individuals who have experienced problems with healthcare regardless of where they live in the UK.
