Our health is closely linked to the environments we live in. We know that if you have issues with your housing, employment and income, or access to essential resources, these can all have an impact on your physical and mental health.

Alongside its work to provide essential health and care services, the NHS can also work to improve the social and economic conditions people live in, to help prevent illness and improve the lives of people living in South East London.

What is the listening campaign?

This listening campaign aims to involve you and other people living in south east London representing our diverse communities to understand the pressures on you and your community. Listening to a large number of people will enable the NHS to hear about the impact of a diverse range of issues people experience in South East London.

This listening campaign will help organisations in South East London, including the NHS, councils, the voluntary sector, and universities, work together to support people to live good lives, for example through work opportunities, fair pay, and creating healthy places to live and work.

Participate in the listening campaign

The NHS wants to hear from you about what makes it harder for you and your community to thrive, so that it can take action on these issues, reduce inequality, and help make South East London a healthier, fairer and more equitable place to live and work.

Please take a few minutes and share your thoughts. What makes it harder for you and your community to thrive? Click here to take part in the listening campaign.
