NHS Birthday 2023
July 5
On 5 July 2023, the NHS will mark 75 years of service. In 1948, the then Minister of Health, Aneurin Bevin, launched the NHS in Park Hospital in Manchester. Its first patient was a 13-year old called Sylvia Diggory, who was admitted with liver problems. They will be celebrating this amazing milestone by showcasing the best of the NHS and encouraging as many of you as possible to join us with NHS 75 activities.
