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.
In recognition of Youth Mental Health Day on Saturday 18 September, we’re highlighting the four ways young people can access mental health support in their local area.
Young people in Lambeth and across south east London can get a wide range of free mental health and wellbeing support at school, their GP, online and in community centres.
Getting tested for STIs and HIV has never been easier. Whether you prefer to test at home, visit your GP, attend a sexual health clinic or access community outreach services, there are a range of free and confidential options available to Lambeth residents.
New research using Lambeth health data suggests that NHS Health Checks could help people live longer by identifying health problems early and supporting people to get the care they need.
The study, published in the British Journal of General Practice, followed more than 158,000 Lambeth residents over a 15-year period.
