Bevan's NHS

Bevan’s NHS refers to the foundation of the National Health Service in the UK, established in 1948 by Aneurin Bevan. It aimed to provide comprehensive, publicly funded healthcare free at the point of use, ensuring equal access regardless of income or background. Funded through taxation, the NHS covers a wide range of services including general practice, hospitals, and emergency care. Bevan’s vision prioritized health as a right for all citizens, aiming to improve public health and reduce disparities. The NHS has since become a core part of Britain’s social fabric, reflecting a commitment to universal healthcare.
