Summary of report content

Healthwatch Redbridge gave a small grant to the Black Women's Kindness Institute to identify health inequalities. The project, called the ‘Better Me, Better Life Campaign’ was created to empower Black Women to have a voice in their local community in developing a more equitable health and community service provision within Redbridge.  They ran a survey and a community day to get input from Black women.  The report outlines the activities they undertook.

Most women spoken to felt they weren’t able to engage with community services as they didn’t feel they would meet their needs. They also felt they had clear ideas of the type of community provision they would like to see in the borough.
