| NHS Direct |
| What is NHS Direct?
NHS Direct is at the forefront of 24-hour health care - delivering telephone and e-health information services day and night direct to the public. Although the organisation started out in 1997, it has been growing and changing over that time, most noticeably since April 2004.
It is now far more than a telephone health line - NHS Direct has an authoritative health website, and 2004 saw the addition of the NHS Direct digital TV service - one of the largest interactive services in the UK. Over two million people now access NHS Direct every month.

| NHS Choices |
| What it is
NHS Choices is a service that aims to put you at the centre of your healthcare.
It’s been developed to help you make choices about your health, from lifestyle decisions about things like smoking, drinking and exercise, through to the practical aspects of finding and using NHS services should you need them. There’s already a lot here, but the range of information NHS Choices offers - and the uses you can put it to - will expand as the service grows.
