Lambeth Together partner, Age UK Lambeth, is offering a range of free services this winter to help residents stay warm, well and connected.
Winter Wellbeing Drop-ins will offer hot drinks, social activities and information about winter support. Sessions take place at Vidas, 2B Saltoun Road, Brixton, on 20 October (12pm–3pm), 27 October (11am–1pm) and 10 November (1pm–3pm).
Lambeth residents are being encouraged to share their experiences of physical activity as part of a new borough-wide programme aiming to tackle inequalities and help more people lead active, healthy lives. They’re particularly interested in hearing from people with current low levels of activity.
Healthwatch Lambeth is encouraging local residents to take part in a new national survey about hospital discharge experiences. They’re looking for people who have had a difficult experience leaving hospital in the last 12 months, or who have supported someone through the discharge process.
Lambeth residents are helping to shape a new joined-up neighbourhood health and care approach. Recent workshops, surveys and focus groups run by Healthwatch Lambeth and culminating in their Integrated Neighbourhood Teams (INTs) Community Engagement Report – show a strong call for local, connected and preventive services that are easier to access, more personal, and rooted in community life.
