Lambeth Together welcomed 12 new Clinical and Care Professional Leaders at the May meeting of the Lambeth Together Care Partnership Board.
These individuals, who all work within health and care services in the borough, will bring invaluable clinical and professional expertise to Lambeth Together’s work to improve health and wellbeing and to tackle inequalities in the borough as part of an integrated health and care system.
Today marks the launch of Mental Health Awareness Week, the UK’s national week to raise awareness of mental health. The week, which is hosted by the Mental Health Foundation, is in its 22nd year and runs from Monday 9 to Sunday 15 May.
Last month Black Thrive Lambeth launched their highly anticipated Culturally Appropriate Peer Support & Advocacy (CAPSA) service that aims to improve the mental wellbeing and recovery journeys of Black communities in Lambeth. The service comes into being after over a year of planning and working with the community to co-produce the Lambeth Living Well Network Alliance’s new offering in culturally appropriate care.
Representatives for the Lambeth Living Well Network Alliance attended the Health Service Journal Partnership Awards 2022 last night after being shortlisted under ‘Best Mental Health Partnership with the NHS’. The team were also shortlisted alongside Mosaic Clubhouse for their work to support people experiencing mental health issues remotely during the Covid-19 pandemic.
