More than 400 local people joined a special health and wellbeing day on Saturday for the borough’s Black communities. It combined culture, entertainment, stalls, health screening, sports and expert support to highlight and improve health issues.
It was organised by Lambeth Together – a partnership between Lambeth Council, the NHS and the voluntary sector – alongside the inspire programme which was set up after the Covid-19 pandemic to tackle the big health inequalities faced by Black people in London.
It’s time to nominate unpaid carers and those who support them for the Lambeth’s Carers Awards 2024. Tell us about someone who goes above and beyond to care for others in our community, and let’s give them the recognition they deserve.
This year the much loved Inspire Black Communities Health and Wellbeing Day returns to Kennington on Saturday 6 July 2024 from 11am to 4pm. Expect a warm welcome and lots of information to support you to improve your health and wellbeing.
