About our work

The health and adult social services team leads London Councils’ policy is working to deliver three priorities:

Health reforms: Influencing the way the NHS reforms are implemented in London, in the context of the NHS White paper reform proposals. Social care: Seeking to secure a fair level of funding for local authorities to provide adequate social care services and to improve the quality of care.

The partnership approach: Working with other key stakeholders in London to improve health outcomes for the people of London. 

Recently London Councils has taken its place on the 'shadow' London Health Improvement Board (LHIB), which in partnership with the Mayor, the boroughs and the NHS will work to improve the health of all Londoners and reduce inequalities in health outcomes.
