Reviewing the impact of the Healthier Futures programme - KCSC E-bulletin

KCSC's weekly e-bulletin

This Thursday we'll be celebrating the local VCS with our Stakeholder Summer Garden Party, which we're very excited for. The event is now fully booked but you can sign up to the waiting list below.

There's a big moment for us as we take a look back at the Healthier Futures programme through our Impact Report. Delivered between October 2020 and March 2025, the programme supported over 3,300 residents in the aftermath of the Grenfell tower fire through 14 core services and several pilot initiatives, led by local voluntary and community sector organisations. This report looks at how Healthier Futures offers a blueprint for community-led health and wellbeing support and demonstrated the unique value of community-led interventions. We'd once again like to thank all of the 17 organisations who were involved in delivering the services that made up the programme.

Finally, another reminder that we are seeking an experienced and committed individual to join the KCSC Board and take up the role of Treasurer. Find out more here.
