NHS
The NHS is England's publicly funded health service, led nationally by NHS England, with care delivered through local NHS trusts, GP practices, and other providers.
What they do
The National Health Service was founded on 5 July 1948. This entry covers the NHS in England; Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland run their own health services. NHS England leads the service nationally and has seven regional teams that support commissioning across the country, while integrated care boards plan local services and NHS trusts and foundation trusts run hospitals and community care. The government plans to abolish NHS England and move most of its functions into the Department of Health and Social Care, creating an NHS Group there from 1 April 2027, subject to the Health Bill, which was still in the House of Lords in November 2026.
