The revised statutory Relationships, Sex and Health Education (RSHE) guidance came into effect in England on 1 September 2026. Alongside this, the Neighbourhood Health Framework, published in March 2026, sets a direction for more coordinated services, prevention and locally developed approaches to health and wellbeing.
These developments create an opportunity to consider what is needed to support more joined up working.
Perhaps relationship health can support some shared thinking?
