Clear, understandable information is important to help you make the right health and care decisions. Join our campaign and have your say on what needs to change.

We've launched Brent Voices, our brand new quarterly magazine. It's packed with information about how we're improving health services, as well as events and activity in the borough that you can get involved with. Plus, our Spring edition has the results from our recent GP Access borough - find out about residents' experiences booking an appointment with their GP.

Our evaluation of Brent's winter access fund found that patients benefited enormously from greater access to GP appointments, mental health crisis support, bereavement support and urgent care plan reviews. These projects were received very well by patients, who rated the care they received very highly. They also helped reduce pressure on primary care services. We look forward to seeing further work from North West London's Primary Care team in these areas. Read our reports here.

People who have so far not been vaccinated or have only had one dose are being urged to come forward so that they and their loved ones are protected. Booster vaccines are also now available across Brent. 

In order to vaccinate as many people as possible, as quickly as possible, the local NHS, in partnership with local councils, is providing thousands of additional vaccination appointments. For information on where to get your jab,  how to book and where walk-in jabs may be available,  go to www.nwlondonccg.nhs.uk/coronavirus/vaccine-centres . Please note that the best way to guarantee your jab is to book in advance, as walk-in vaccination will depend on availability.
