National Voices June 2020
- "Decision makers must engage with those citizens most affected by both the virus and lockdown restrictions and understand how lives are lived by those who have underlying conditions." National Voices, a coalition of health and care charities in England, have developed five principles to underpin and test any policy change.
- 1. Actively engage with those most impacted by the change
- 2. Make everyone matter, leave no-one behind
- 3. Confront inequality head-on
- 4. Recognise people, not categories, by strengthening personalised care
- 5. Value health, care and support equally
