Advice and Information -
The best way to help protect your child against severe illness from polio, flu, measles, mumps, rubella, and other childhood diseases is to get them up to date with their routine vaccinations.
If you or your child are not registered with a GP, they can still get free vaccinations – contact a GP surgery.

We are recruiting for a Project Officer. This is a community and office-based role, encompassing both face-to-face community engagement and outreach elements, alongside office-based aspects.News -
National and local efforts have afforded increased attention to LGBTQ+ health and well-being, but this research often emphasises those identifying as gay/lesbian or bisexual, excluding those identifying as trans or non-binary.
We want to capture the experiences of our trans community members in Lewisham by asking them questions about their interactions with mental health, sexual health, GP services, and other health services. All interviews will be conducted by members of the trans community.
To be considered, you should identify as trans or non-binary and either live in the borough, or access health services in the borough. You will receive £20 for your time. With recent funding, we are looking for spaces to conduct the interviews as well as open to anyone who would like to get involved in the research project.
If you are interested, please send us an email at INFO@healthwatchlewisham.co.uk and we can organize a session!
