Don’t Nix Care: Protecting our Hospices

Hospices provide compassionate end of life care for hundreds of thousands of people each year, while easing pressure on overstretched NHS hospitals. After years of underfunding and rising costs, our new policy will secure the future of hospice care.

Backing Hospitality for Growth and Jobs

Hospitality businesses are vital for jobs, economic growth, and thriving communities – our new policy backs hospitality, helping pubs, cafés, restaurants, and hotels not just survive, but thrive - supporting local jobs and boosting the economy.

Opportunity For All

Skills shortages are holding back our economy, while investment in training has plummeted and opportunities to re-skill remain out of reach for too many people. Our reforms will give everyone the tools, support, and confidence to succeed at any age.

Freedom From Harm - Gambling as a Public Health Issue

Liberal Democrats have passed bold new policy to put public health at the heart of gambling regulation. These reforms would save lives, raise hundreds of millions for NHS treatment, and finally hold the industry to account.

Getting Emergency Care Back on Track

Our NHS emergency services are in crisis – with patients dying in A&E waiting rooms, hours-long ambulance delays, and unsafe ‘corridor care’ becoming routine. Our new policy will restore dignity for patients, protect NHS staff, and save lives.

Policing Fit for the Future

Years of Conservative neglect left our policing system in crisis - our bold new policy will make policing fit for the future, putting public safety first, ensuring everyone can feel safe in their home and on their street.
