Social Action For Health

At Social Action for Health, we have a vision for a world where unfair and avoidable health inequalities no longer exist. Poverty, discrimination, prejudice and inaccessible systems across society are leading to an unequal distribution of good health. Our mission is to support and address the priorities of those most affected by health inequalities, and to champion the case for wider structural and societal change. For over 35 years Social Action for Health has worked with thousands of individuals and partnered with dozens of organisations from across London. Our way of working is to build capacity in people and communities – particularly those most affected by health inequalities. We are expert at engaging participation and then facilitating ways that people can develop their own solutions, share their expertise and see the world and opportunities in a different way. In the coming years, we are committed to developing expertise to support people in the following health contexts: - Long-term health conditions, including cancer, mental ill-health and long-Covid - Pregnancy, birth and early-parenthood - Youth health - Community Research
