Health
Introduction by Rosie Winterton MP
Former Minister of State at the Department of Health
As Minister for Health, as a Member of Parliament, and also as a woman in South Yorkshire it gives me great pleasure to introduce South Yorkshire Women's Development Trust health page.
As women, good health for us and our families is always our number one priority. This page provides us with information about health all in one place.
Women's health has always been a key issue for this government. The recently published white paper on health further expands on this government's commitment to women's health, focussing on maternity care, cancer and sexual health, amongst other issues.
While this government has made huge progress in many areas of women's health, there is still more to do. Making women aware of health issues and providing women with information about health care is important in this progress.
I am happy, therefore, that the South Yorkshire Women's Development Trust is providing us, as women in South Yorkshire, with a webpage which will help to keep us informed. From this page you can find key information about health care provision and support in South Yorkshire.
I hope you find these pages useful and informative.

Member of Parliament for Doncaster Central
