Spend a day at the Neighbourhood Health Hub. 🏥

Built to tackle major local health inequalities, the Neighbourhood Health Hub acts as a “passport to good health”. Its core mission is to empower residents with the knowledge and confidence to look after their own and their community’s wellbeing.

In collaboration with local government and community partners, we are actively building capacity from within.
Last week, we welcomed volunteers from our Newham community. These volunteers are stepping up to become vital Health Champions within their own neighbourhoods. In partnership with Newham Council, the hub delivered first aid training alongside upskilling on how to do health checks.

When HRH The Princess of Wales visited UEL last month to launch The Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood's Foundations for Life guide, it sparked an important conversation about the role that universities can play in improving lifelong outcomes for children.

Writing for Times Higher Education, UEL Vice-Chancellor & President Professor Amanda Broderick and Christian Guy, Executive Director of the Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood, argue that universities must embed a stronger understanding of early social and emotional development across education, workforce training and research.

Is this June rain confusing you too? ☔️🌧️

Sometimes a walk in the London rain with the right community is exactly the pick me up you need.

With today’s downpour outside, we are throwing it back to our active hike to Hampstead Heath. It reminded us that getting outside, moving together, and embracing the elements, even when the weather doesn’t play along can still be the perfect way to reset and clear your mind.

Where is your favourite spot to recharge in London, rain or shine?

University is about so much more than just the degree, it’s about the community you build along the way.

From late night library sessions to watching the sunset over the Docklands, this is a place where you never have to change who you are to fit in. You just belong. 🌊🫶
