Doing Things Differently: Supporting Service Development in the Community
Providing better access to care closer to home to create healthier communities.
Spotlight: Covid-19
The Bevan Commission's response to the Covid-19 pandemic
We live in unprecedented times and Covid–19 is affecting lives locally, nationally, and globally. The Bevan Commission has utilised the expertise it has available through its Bevan Commissioners, Bevan Advocates, Bevan Exemplars and Bevan Fellows, to best effect for people in Wales and wider afield. We will continue to observe, analyse, interpret and comment on the situation with a view to securing a better way forward and a vision fit for the future. As part of this work we have produced a series of opinion pieces addressing a range of relevant Covid-19 issues as well as capturing the experiences of people, new learning and other opportunities as they evolve.
