South East London Integrated Care System works in partnership with local people and communities. We are prioritising working together and developing our relationship with communities. This improves health and wellbeing and supports people to thrive and live healthier lives.
To help us improve and transform services so they work for local people we must understand what is important to different people. To do so, we need to listen to people’s experiences and views of health and care. This also means we can better address health inequalities, which are unfair and systematic differences in health between different groups of people.
Join the conversation to give us your views.
We listen to local people and our communities through engagement activities and we also work with local community organisations to gather the views of specific groups of people we do not usually hear from. This will help build relationships and trust to inform the way we work with people and communities.
The ICS has developed its approach to working with people and communities which was approved at the Integrated Care Board meeting on 1 July 2022.
The ICS has developed an engagement toolkit and a series of guides and top tips to support staff across south east London carrying out engagement with local people and communities.
Keep up to date with our latest opportunities to get involved, updates about our programmes progress and outcomes with our monthly Get Involved newsletter.
