Hi Leigh, under "8. Can I opt my data out? If so, how?" the article gives this more straightforward link to both options:
https://www.nhs.uk/using-the-nhs/about-the-nhs/opt-out-of-sharing-your-health-records/
But I highly recommend checking out the context in the article too rather than going straight there, since while I opted out in both ways myself some time ago, it might not be in everyone's interests to do so ✊🏼

@DarkOptimism@mstdn.social @Silversnapples@mastodonapp.uk Eventually found the link in the article by randomly jabbing my finger around the first paragraph in section 8 as you indicated. The way this page is displayed on my phone screen there is nothing about the words 'opt out' to indicate they are link text.
