Community update

Welcome

Welcome to our community update. This is NHS North West London's newsletter for local community and voluntary groups.

We would encourage you to help us by sharing the relevant content in your community newsletters and email updates aimed at your members and residents. You may also use this wording in social media posts. Images and some campaign materials in different languages are available on our resources page.
Help us keep your communities well this winter – apply now for funding support 

Our winter 2024/2025 community funding programme has now launched. We are looking for local community groups and organisations to support the delivery of key health messages from October to March 2025.

Key messages include: flu and COVID-19 vaccination, navigating health services, GP access and self-care. This programme is also an opportunity to gain insight on barriers and motivations, enhance community engagement and provide targeted support to improve health outcomes. 

The programme is looking for organisations that can have conversations with people, who can share the messages, verbally and through conversation with families and communities. Simple messages, information and resources will be made available to support this.

If this is you and you can help the NHS support your community this winter read more and apply on the NHS North West London website.
Monthly summaries of how we have involved local residents and communities

Monthly summaries of how we have involved local residents and communities are now being published. Our involvement strategy commits us to working with local people and using their insights to develop our plans and strategies for health services in North West London. Read more and find summaries here.

Website survey

We are always looking to improve the NHS NW London website (www.nwlondonicb.nhs.uk).

We want residents to tell us about the things we are really doing well, but just as importantly tell us about any changes we should consider making.

Please take a couple of minutes to complete this survey. The closing date is Wednesday 11 September 2024.
