The areas we serve

We want to make sure that everyone living in our area has the best opportunity to live a happy and healthy life. And we want them to get the support they need, when they need it. We also want to reduce the inequalities in health between different communities.

Much of what we do is delivered through more local Health and Care Partnerships (HCP). There are three of these geographically-based HCPs in Hertfordshire and west Essex, and your local area is represented by one of these.
