Annual General Meeting 2024
Our Chair of Trustees, Patrick Mitchell, welcomed our attendees and thanked our outgoing Chair, Sarah Corlett, and outgoing CEO, Mairéad Healy.
We introduced new trustees to the Board, all of whom were approved for a three-year term. The new trustees include Patrick Mitchell, Tom Lee, Zahra Abbas, Max Ottaway, Andrew Dobson, Dr Chioma Okonji, David Maguire, and Jennifer Walker. This brings our board to our maximum capacity of twelve members.

Mental Health
We are currently completing the report for our project on understanding the experiences of Black African and Black Caribbean men with a severe mental illness (SMI).
Public Participation in the Healthcare System
The reports for our project on supporting community engagement in Lambeth Primary Care Networks Care Networks (PCNs) have been sent to partners for feedback and will be published shortly.
Access to Services
We have projects in progress aiming to understand the barriers to access for specific communities and those experiencing digital exclusion.
Lambeth Pulse
Lambeth Pulse is our regular survey exploring the views of Lambeth residents on various topics across health and social care.
Responses are collected via:
- Information stalls in libraries, supermarkets, hospitals, and health centres
- Community events, e.g. Lambeth Country Show, Ageing Well Festival
- Online, via social media and our networks
