There is a revolution taking place that will result in greater participation by individuals in managing their own health and well being.

Whilst health and social care inequalities still exist, huge strides forward in public health awareness and high-tech medicine have resulted in life expectancy increasing significantly in recent decades with a corresponding increase in individuals living with long term conditions.

Unprecedented access via the internet to information on health and wellness as well as the widespread adoption of broadband communications and emerging social networks, has created an environment where citizens are increasing knowledge around their own health requirements and rich digital media is becoming available to support this quest.

interactivHealth's vision is that over time, Patients and the public will start to receive Pro-active communication about health, social care and voluntary sector resources available to them both locally and nationally that will lead to an increase in choice and control over the management of their own health and well being.

Increasingly, Patients and the public will also start to interact with others using social networks to derive information about living with conditions and making appropriate choices about their health and treatment. Health 2.0 as it is becoming known embraces internet technology allowing Patients and the public themselves to deliver content. InteractivHealth plc fully embraces Health 2.0 and will seek to maintain it's position as a thought leader in this area.
