Population health

Prevention, wellbeing and equity

The Prevention, Wellbeing, and Equity partnership brings together South East London Integrated Care System and King’s Health Partners to improve health outcomes.

We are:

  • Focusing on the ‘Vital 5’ (healthy blood pressure, healthy mind, healthy eating, safe drinking and quitting smoking), which are important for long-term good health and wellbeing.
  • Establishing Women’s and Girls’ Health Hubs to improve health outcomes and ensure all women and girls have the same access to high quality care.
  • Collaborating with community groups and residents to build trust and reduce health inequalities so that everyone has the same opportunity to lead a healthy life, no matter where they live or who they are.
  • Working with our partners to drive improvements in the uptake of vaccinations and immunisations to ensure all our residents are protected from illness.

Preventing illness at an early stage and empowering residents with the right information to stay healthy are key to improving wellbeing and reducing inequalities across south east London.
