We are not the NHS or a government body
Consumer Health is an independent health-information resource. We are not the NHS, a government department or a regulator.
Our design is deliberately clear and serious because health information should be. Our authority comes from the quality of our content and our sources — not from any official status.
Editorial independence
Editorial decisions about what we publish, and how, are made independently of any commercial arrangement. Advertising and any private-pathway services are kept clearly separate from editorial information.
How we are funded
Funding arrangements will be described here in full. Any commercial relationships are disclosed on our commercial relationships page.
