Our plan to end the A&E corridor crisis
30,000 people wait for over 12 hours in A&E departments every single week - it's a national scandal and we have a plan to stop it.

The contaminated blood scandal is one of the gravest injustices in NHS history. We must honour victims with recognition, dignity, and compensation – and ensure no one ever suffers from such injustice again.
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.
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.
Carers are not just support for their loved ones—they are the glue holding our fragile social care system together. They deserve more than token acknowledgements or empty promises.
Liberal Democrats have passed new policy to stand up for bereaved families and kinship carers, so more young people can grow up in a loving, stable home.
We believe everyone deserves high-quality healthcare, accessible when and where it’s needed and free at the point of use.
The Liberal Democrats are committed to transforming maternal and neonatal care and ensuring inclusive care for all, so we can create a safer, more compassionate healthcare system for everyone.
