  1. It’s been over ten years since the National HIV Testing Week campaign began, and thousands of Londoners have taken charge of their health and gotten tested. This year National HIV Testing Week 2026 runs from Monday 9 to Sunday 15 February.

  2. Great Mental Health Day returns on Friday 30 January 2026, encouraging Londoners to talk openly about mental health and to connect with the local support available all year round. Across London, the 2026 theme is ‘everyday spaces’, the places that don’t look like services, but so often become the first place we feel safe enough to say, I need help.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.
