Health Navigators

Our Health Navigators conduct free health and wellbeing checks for residents and ensure that everyone has access to vital health information. This project is run in partnership with NHS South West London Integrated Care System.

Residents can come along to a session and have various health checks done including BMI and blood pressure. Our health navigators also share information about healthcare services and using the NHP app.

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).

We run a busy outreach programme including:

  • GP surgeries, health centres and medical practices
  • Leisure centres
  • Health and wellbeing community events
  • Community groups

How We Help

Our volunteers provide a positive and empowering experience for those most in need. Through our Health Navigarots Project, we aim to make a real difference in the lives of Sutton residents. We believe that early intervention and support can have a huge impact on health outcomes and quality of life.
