Tower Hamlets Together is all about health and social care organisations working closer together to improve the health and wellbeing of people living in Tower Hamlets.
This means a more coordinated approach to providing services, reducing duplication and improving the overall experience and outcomes for the patients who need them.
We’ve designed this website to help explain how Tower Hamlets Together is doing this and promote opportunities for you to get involved. The organisations involved are:
We believe every child should have the best possible start in life. We aim to develop health and education services in Tower Hamlets for both maternity and childhood, improving their physical, social, emotional and cognitive development.
We aim to simplify and enhance the way care is provided to support the continued health and wellbeing of adults in Tower Hamlets, particularly those with long-term health conditions or who are vulnerable to illness.
We intend to improve the experience and wellbeing of residents aged 50 and over throughout Tower Hamlets, working alongside the older generation to identify what matters most as they grow older.
Care Confident is a new educational and communication campaign aimed at supporting families with under five year olds to better understand the signs and symptoms of the most common childhood illnesses, helping them to know what to do, and when to worry. It also aims to help parents and carers keep their children healthy.
