Making Healthy Choices Easier: Food, Health Information, Benefits & Community Support

The London Fields Neighbourhood Forum is bringing together local residents, families, community organisations and health services to help people make informed choices about their health and wellbeing and find the support they need.

This free community event is an opportunity to discover affordable food options, learn about healthy eating and nutrition, find out where to access health checks and advice beyond your GP, and explore benefits and other support available locally. The forum will also provide an opportunity to share experiences and discuss how access to health information and community services can be improved.
