Public health

Public health is the practice of improving the health of communities through health promotion and disease prevention. Our goal is for everyone living in Tower Hamlets to have an equal right to good health.

Your health can be affected by your age, gender, disability status, financial situation, family history, the environment around you, and more. The Public Health Division is working to identify and tackle issues, enabling you to live a long life in good health. We look at health information and help other organisations design services that work for residents.
