About This is our health
This is our health is a public conversation about how we build better health together in Northern Ireland.
Health and social care services are under sustained pressure, and people’s lives, needs and expectations are changing. If we want people to live longer, healthier and more fulfilling lives, we cannot rely on services alone to deliver that. We need to support people to stay well for longer and make sure services are able to focus their effort where it really counts.
A collective promise
What people share through This is our health will help shape a collective promise between the people of Northern Ireland and the health and care services that support them.
This is about working out:
- where people can take steps to support their own health in everyday life
- where health and social care services are most needed and must work well
- how we can work together so that we can achieve more
