South East London Integrated Care System works in partnership with local people and communities. We are prioritising working together and developing our relationship with communities. This improves health and wellbeing and supports people to thrive and live healthier lives.

South east London is a wonderfully vibrant area made up of many different communities of people.

To help us improve and transform services so they work for local people we must understand what is important to different people. To do so, we need to listen to people’s experiences and views of health and care. This also means we can better address health inequalities, which are unfair and systematic differences in health between different groups of people.

Join the conversation to give us your views.

Let’s talk health and care

Listening to local people and our community.

We listen to local people and our communities through engagement activities and we also work with local community organisations to gather the views of specific groups of people we do not usually hear from. This will help build relationships and trust to inform the way we work with people and communities.
