We’re really proud of our Neighbourhood health programme. By working in new ways with colleagues in local authorities, primary care, NHS trusts and the voluntary and community sector, we’re investing in supporting the health needs of local residents in a more complete, joined up way.
We wanted to capture a snapshot of Neighbourhood working in practice. We’re pleased to say we now have a video based in each of the boroughs of Barnet, Camden, Enfield, Haringey and Islington.
“These examples shine a light on different stages of the Neighbourhood journey, from early conception to fully formed teams.
From Enfield’s Healthy Hearts Project to East Camden’s Integrated Neighbourhood Team, (these films) demonstrate the impact we can have and showcase the frontline teams working hard to overcome the barriers to integration and to deliver impact.
Case studies such as these also strengthen the evidence base for future work, which will develop quickly as we progress commissioning plans across the new West and North London ICB. Together, we are building something significant.”

We’d like to thank everyone working in partnership to set up and run Neighbourhood projects. These teams are helping residents avoid having to repeat their story multiple times, get referred quicker, but also get help for non-medical factors affecting health, like loneliness, housing, finances, being a carer and more.
