Improving Community Health in Sutton

Join our team of Health Navigators!

Our Community Health Project is designed to address health inequality in Sutton. Age, ethnicity, place of residence, and lifestyle choices all contribute to variations in health outcomes among the local population. Through health education and early intervention, we aim to make a significant difference to individual health outcomes. 

Interested in becoming a Health Navigator? Please give us your details here and one of the team will be in touch soon.

 

What We Do:

Our project recruits and trains a dedicated group of volunteers who engage with those most in need. These volunteers provide support and guidance to residents through health and wellbeing events, health checks (e.g., blood pressure), health education awareness (e.g., cancer, diabetes, blood pressure, mental health, etc.), signposting to other services (e.g., British Heart Foundation, Stroke Charities, Weight loss, etc.), and NHS app training (helping access the NHS app).
