Homeless Health Workshop
It is well known that people experiencing homelessness face significant health difficulties and inequalities with poorer outcomes than the general population. The average age of death for someone experiencing homelessness is 30 years lower than the general population.
The Hounslow Public Health Team recently collaborated with local homeless services and homeless link to conduct a homeless health needs audit. These findings will be presented on Wednesday 30th October 1:30pm to 4:30pm on MS teams.
If you have an interest in health and in particular homelessness, then please join to learn how Hounslow can help to improve health outcomes for people experiencing homelessness. The Hounslow homelessness health inequalities project is part of the CORE20 plus 5 priorities.

The Community Provisions team supports adults with disabilities to overcome barriers and thrive. Back in the Summer, they ran a very successful and engaging men's cancer awareness event called Bowling Balls for men with autism, learning disabilities and related conditions.
Bowling Balls returns with a new men's health topic - Fitness and Nutrition
Designed specifically for men with autism, learning disabilities, and related conditions, the event will offer an inclusive and supportive environment to learn, connect, and get active, and will be led by Lampton Leisure and BeeZee Bodies.
Attendees will gain practical tips to boost their fitness and nutrition in a relaxed setting, and everyone will receive a free guest pass for a supported fitness session at a Lampton Leisure Centre in the borough.
Please share this event with your network.
