Well London Delivery Team in Limehouse, Tower Hamlets
The Well London Delivery Team has run in each of the 20 Well London areas. The projects recruited teams of volunteers who received training in outreach and health promotion and then went out into their communities to signpost local residents to services and activities that promote health and wellbeing. They also fed back to service delivery organisations to help them to deliver better services.
In addition to raising awareness among local residents, this project also built capacity particularly around confidence and skills among the volunteers, a number of whom found employment as a result. The Well London Delivery Team run by City Gateway in Tower Hamlets was a particularly successful example.
