Lambeth's community groups offered chance to improve local wellbeing

Lambeth Psychological Therapies Service are seeking to award seven Lambeth community groups up to £1,000 to improve the wellbeing of their community.

Entrants are encouraged to come forward with creative ideas to meet local need. Groups may want to plant a community garden, buy play equipment for a local crèche, or organise a relaxing trip for carers - any idea is welcome as long as it supports the wellbeing of Lambeth people.

Lambeth Psychological Therapies Service is a part of the national Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) programme, with the aim of increasing people’s awareness of ways to help wellbeing. Successful applicants will be supported by the IAPT team to carry out their project.

Interested groups are invited to attend an information day on either:

17 June, 8-9.30pm - 1A Dalbury House, Edmondsbury Estate, Ferndale Road, Brixton SW9 8AP

23rd June, 1–2.30pm – 322 Brixton Road, Brixton SW9 7AA

To RSVP please contact Sonia El-Harrak or Jacquie Levett on 0207 188 5406 or e-mail to jacqueline.levett@slam.nhs.uk
