Free updates included when purchasing a full set

Ensure your clinical procedures are up to date with W&P’s Update Service. 

W&P’s policy and compliance team constantly scan and review all the statutory websites and regulatory publications to track the very latest developments in the Health & Social Care Sector. We then assimilate all the data collected and update the policies every 4 months  or immediately if there is a critical change to regulation, good practice guidance, case law outcomes etc. The update service is free for your first year. For convenience, we ask you to sign up to pay your annual subscription by direct debit when purchasing a full set. After the first year of free updates, unless you choose to cancel, your direct debit will start and the update service continues – we will send you a reminder that the subscription is due but if you decide to cancel before then, you can, you will not be charged a penny. The update service is just £225 (exc vat) per year after the first free year of updates.

Unlike some policy and procedure providers, there are no license agreements, restrictive clauses or long- term commitments, when you buy W&P Policies, it’s a one-off cost and they are yours to keep. The only ongoing cost is the Update Service which is FREE in the first year and completely optional thereafter.

You also receive any NEW Policies and Procedures that we release to meet changes in legislation FREE of charge.
