Our Vision
A world where unfair and avoidable health inequalities no longer exist.
Our Mission
To support and address the priorities of those most affected by health inequalities, and to champion the case for wider structural and societal change.
Our Priorities
We are committed to developing our existing expertise to provide services and support in the following delivery areas:
Long-term health conditions, including cancer and mental ill-health
Pregnancy, birth and early-parenthood
Community Research
We are also committed to growing and developing our work in relation to the health and wellbeing of young people, working with them to ascertain their priorities and goals and supporting them to vocalise and act on their decisions.
Our Services
We provide free services and support that equip communities across east London to manage their health, improve wellbeing, and make positive decisions for themselves, their families and communities.
Our services are delivered in an accessible, sensitive, and culturally appropriate way, supported by staff who often speak at least one community language, currently including Bengali, Somali, Urdu, Polish, Chinese, Spanish and English.
Our Research
Good research should leave communities stronger, more empowered, and with the information they need to address inequalities.
We use a range of different research and consultation techniques including surveys, one-to-one interviews, focus group discussions, desk-based research and community conversations to ensure the widest possible representation in research. We have a team of community researchers who conduct research in a variety of languages.
