Women and girls across Lambeth are benefiting from a series of outreach initiatives designed to give them the support and information needed to manage their health confidently. The project is part of NHS South East London Women’s and Girls’ Health Programme and focuses on four key areas: heavy menstrual bleeding, contraception, pre-conception and menopause.
17–23 November marks Self Care Week, a national campaign to empower people to take charge of their health and wellbeing. We’re taking this opportunity to remind residents about the small, positive choices that help you stay well through the colder months.
Age UK Lambeth is running a series of free Winter Wellbeing events and home energy services to help older residents stay healthy, warm and connected this winter. The programme includes expert Q&As, flu vaccinations, and practical energy-saving support.
Residents are invited to Vidas in Brixton for a chance to ask local doctors and public health experts their winter health questions, enjoy refreshments, and receive a free flu vaccination.
People living with chronic pain in Lambeth are set to benefit from a major expansion of a pioneering community-based programme, thanks to new funding from King’s Health Partners, secured in August 2025.
The Pain: Equality of Care and Support in the Community (PEACS) programme, developed by Lambeth Together’s Neighbourhood and Wellbeing Delivery Alliance (NWDA), has been working with residents, clinicians and voluntary sector partners to co-design a new approach to chronic pain.
