High quality mental health care services are of vital importance in a borough such as Lambeth where there are on average more people requiring support with mental health conditions, and not least given the additional challenges that Covid-19 restrictions and increased isolation present to our residents.
The COVID-19 vaccine is the best protection against coronavirus.
Please encourage your friends, relatives and people from your community to get the jab.
Please check out this video from our friends in Stockwell for more information.
For more information see our Covid-19 Vaccinations – Lambeth Together page or please visit www.selondonccg.nhs.uk
PrEP is now available for Lambeth residents
PrEP stands for pre-exposure prophylaxis and is a pill you can take to protect you from HIV. If taken correctly it is extremely effective in preventing a person from getting HIV. Lambeth and local authorities around England have received funding to commission PrEP for Q3 and Q4 of 20/21.

This week is national Adults Safeguarding week (16-22 November) 2020, which aims to raise the profile of adult safeguarding – protecting vulnerable adults who are at risk of or experiencing abuse and neglect. It is vital that we know how to spot the signs of abuse and neglect and who to report to for help.
