Together We Can
‘Together We Can’ is West Yorkshire’s long term campaign to minimise pressures on urgent and emergency services.
During winter and times of significant pressure on local services, the public are still encouraged to come forward and not to delay if they need help or are concerned about their health, but we want to ensure they’re using the right services and they know when to go to a pharmacy, use NHS 111 or their GP practice.
