After a weekend celebrating love, Lambeth residents over 40 are being encouraged to show their hearts a little care this Heart Month by dropping into a local pharmacy for a quick, free blood pressure check.
High blood pressure remains a major issue in the borough, with data showing that just over 34% of Lambeth adults have higher‑than‑average blood pressure.
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.
As the year draws to a close, the Brixton Blood Donor Centre is calling on our community to come together and make a life-changing difference. Blood donations drop during the winter months, yet the need remains constant – and urgent. One hour of your time could save up to three lives, making it one of the most meaningful gifts you can give this festive season.
Lambeth Together is proud to present its annual review, showcasing significant progress in health and care plans for the borough. Their commitment to improving health and wellbeing, delivering high-quality care, and creating a sustainable health and care system for Lambeth communities remains stronger than ever.
