Great to hear Streeting is thinking about dedicated plans to tackle some of the UK's biggest killers. Record numbers of people are waiting for cardiac tests & treatment, which is why BHF Policy are also urging Govt to consider a dedicated Heart Disease Action Plan ❤️
"Don't leave office eating regretti spaghetti" is going to be my new motto 🤣👏 Fab new manual from Bryan & Henry Dimbleby about what it will take to successfully address diet & obesity-related illness, including CVD. Keir Starmer, Wes Streeting & @GwynneMP take note!
