In Greenwich and across the country, the NHS is working closely with local councils, voluntary groups, and community organisations to develop and deliver neighbourhood health services, in line with the ambitions set out in the national 10 Year Health Plan.
Neighbourhood working will transform how we support people’s health and wellbeing by bringing more care closer to home and making services easier to access. It will help people live healthier, more independent lives and reduce unnecessary hospital visits by providing joined-up, personalised care.
Neighbourhood working goes beyond treating illness. It reflects the 10 Year Plan’s ambition to shift the NHS from treating illness to proactive prevention and wellbeing support. This means helping people stay well at every stage of life, giving them more control over their care, and addressing the wider social factors that impact health, such as housing, employment, education, and social connections.

Developing Neighbourhood Teams is essential to delivering personalised, joined up and localised care across south east London.
Neighbourhood teams will go beyond multi-disciplinary working by fully integrating staff from health, social care and voluntary services into a single local team, responsible for delivering seamless and coordinated care in a specific neighbourhood. They will work closely together to provide joined-up, personalised support shaped by the unique needs of the communities they serve.
Our aim is to make care more connected, easier to access, and better coordinated so it responds not just to clinical needs, but to the full range of a person’s physical, mental, emotional and social needs.
We’re at the early stages of developing a neighbourhood health service in Greenwich.
Over the coming months, we’ll be sharing updates, listening to your feedback, and working with local people to shape and improve our plans.
