Haringey residents of all ages are welcome to join us at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Tuesday 17 December for a Health and Wellbeing event organised by North London Foundation Trust, further building upon the success and popularity of  last year’s community mental health and wellbeing forum

This event will showcase the services and support available from the North London Foundation Trust (NLFT), a leading mental health trust, alongside Haringey Council and the Voluntary Care Sector. 

We will provide valuable information and resources on key health and wellbeing challenges in Haringey, including:

• Mental health and gambling support
• Alcohol and drug misuse
• Tuberculosis (TB) and sexually transmitted diseases (STDs)
• Teenage pregnancy and reproductive health
• Childhood obesity and nutrition
• Heart and kidney disease prevention

There will also be a graffiti wall so you can express your creative side and anything that’s on your mind, food and refreshments, entertainment from talented and passionate members of the local community, and presentations tailored to specific groups, including older adults, children, young adults, and carers.   

Also, don’t miss the free raffle for a chance to win a Christmas hamper!
