Our Vision
Care City is an innovation centre for healthy ageing and regeneration.
We work as an innovation partner to East London’s health and care system.
Everything we do is about improving health and the determinants of health.
How we help our East London community
Workforce Transformation: Enablement Champions
Working with care providers and health professionals to identify training needs and delivery methods to develop a tailored apprenticeship training programme that is fully funded and sustainable
Shaping Places for Healthier Lives
We know that the air we breathe is important to the health of our families and our community. Did you know that the air that we breathe inside matters as much as the air we breathe outside?
Mental Health Peer Support Worker Training
Working alongside UCLPartners and PPL we have used The Competence Framework published by Health Education England to create a Peer Support Worker Training programme
Health and Wellbeing Resources
Our friends at Reconnections, Barking & Dagenham recently asked for help in finding resources which could support local residents to remain healthy and active at home, particularly those who have been shielding over the past few months.
Aimed primarily at the over 60s, the links include exercises to aid balance, aerobic fitness and bespoke exercises for various health conditions. They include videos, useful guides and websites from the NHS and public sector, charities and voluntary sector, and personal training and private sectors.
