Ministers launch new campaign asking people to help reduce demand on emergency services
The government has issued a rallying cry to the nation to help fix the NHS as it faces its “toughest winter ever”.
NHS Confederation chief executive Matthew Taylor urged the public to “play your part” as the health service comes under increasing pressure.
Ministers have launched a new campaign asking people to help reduce demand on emergency services by using NHS 111 online, visiting a pharmacy or GP, or calling 999 in a genuine emergency.
The government is also urging people to get vaccinated against flu and Covid-19, and to take steps to stay healthy, such as eating well and getting enough exercise.
Health Secretary Sajid Javid said: “The NHS is facing its toughest winter ever, so it’s vital that we all play our part to help.
“We are asking the public to use NHS services wisely, get vaccinated, and take steps to stay healthy.
“By working together, we can help the NHS to continue providing the best possible care for patients.”

The government’s new campaign includes a series of TV, radio and online adverts, as well as social media activity.
The adverts feature real-life NHS staff and patients, and highlight the importance of using NHS services wisely.
The campaign is part of the government’s wider efforts to support the NHS, which include investing an extra £33.9 billion in the health service over the next three years.
