About

The Southwark Health and Wellbeing Board is a statutory partnership of the Council, NHS, and community organisations focused on preventing ill health, promoting wellbeing, and reducing health inequalities.

It identifies population health needs through the Joint Strategic Needs Assessment and develops a Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy to address these. The board's decisions are informed by resident input, with opportunities for public questions and attendance at its public meetings.

The current strategy, running until 2027, prioritises a healthy start in life, healthy work and lives, support to stay well, and healthy communities.
