It is good that the NHS finally has a long-term workforce plan, even if it’s nearly a decade late. But it will take more than this for the NHS to escape the quagmire it’s in.

From strategy to delivery: How a new report from Bayer UK intends to place women at the heart of reproductive health policy
Women’s health issues have not always been centre stage when it comes to policy discussions. However, following last year’s launch of the Government’s Women’s Health Strategy, they now rightly have found a place on the agenda. But how can we move from strategy to delivery that makes a difference on the ground? Part of the solution could be found in an important new report, ‘Informed, heard, empowered: placing women at the heart of reproductive health policy’, launched by Bayer UK.

Out of Home Advertising: Unlocking Investment in Infrastructure
Between 2008 and 2021, the Out of Home advertising industry invested £1.1 billion in social infrastructure across the UK. However, the business rates regime has a disproportionate and detrimental effect on the industry, restricting the industry’s ability to invest in local communities, and putting at serious risk the ability of Local Authorities to comply with the Government’s own Net Zero Strategy. These effects will only be compounded by the Non-Domestic Rating Bill. Exempting social infrastructure sites from business rates will unlock additional investment directly into local communities.
