The NHS North West London ICS has recognised our immense efforts in supporting newborn’s and parents with a health equity award. We praise our outstanding volunteer workforce who go the extra-mile everyday to improve the health & wellbeing of many economically disadvantaged families or those individuals who suffer from isolation or illness.
We also would like to express our deepest gratitude & thanks to the NHS North West London community engagement team, the communications team, the award panellists and all those that supported our nomination to win this prestigious award.
“A year on from the launch of the NW London inequality strategy, the first Health Equity Awards looked to celebrate people from across North West London who are doing their bit in understanding, and tackling, the barriers that create inequalities and can prevent fair access to health care. The winners represent the passion, kindness and drive of people in our area to make life better for others.” NHS North West London ICS

· Dr Charlotte Benjamin, NW London Chief Medical Officer
· Councillor Ketan Sheth from Brent who is also Chair of the North West London Joint Health Overview and Scrutiny Committee
