NHS South East London has launched a new illustrated guide to healthcare to help residents find the right care, first time. The guide takes a user‑centred approach: you simply start with your symptom or concern, and it sets out a clear route for you to access the most appropriate NHS service — whether that’s getting better at home, visiting a local pharmacy, or knowing when to seek urgent advice.
With colder temperatures and seasonal illnesses, winter signals a surge in demand for NHS services. To ensure people get the right help quickly, local care partnerships across south east London are working to raise awareness of NHS 111 online.

Lambeth’s Annual Public Health Report 2025 focuses on food justice – the principle that everyone has the right to affordable, nutritious, and culturally appropriate food. It highlights how food insecurity in Lambeth is not just about hunger but also about access to food that supports health, dignity, and community.
Lambeth Council wants to know what you think about the move to Minnie Kidd House Sexual Health clinic from the Streatham Hill site. This will ensure that the services provided meet your needs and expectations.
Local authorities have the responsibility to ensure open access sexual health services, providing contraceptives, STI testing and treatment, and sexual health advice.
