Kensington and Chelsea London Borough Council has partnered with NHS North West London to deliver new pop up health hubs so that residents can access free adult health checks and opportunities to vaccinate their children against MMR.

The pop ups offer adults the chance to check things like their blood pressure, blood sugar levels as well as access to information about smoking and alcohol cessation and general wellbeing. Read more about the other health checks that are being offered.

ADKC is a user-led Disabled People’s Organisation working to support disabled people to live independently and campaign for equal rights for disabled people. To find out more about the projects below and more, visit their website. 

Action Disability Kensington and Chelsea Open Day Spring 2025

Do you work or volunteer in your community? Are you passionate about making your neighbourhood more resilient to climate risks and extreme weather events? 

The Climate Connected Communities programme is looking for community representatives across London to join a brand-new programme designed to strengthen local resilience.

Westminster City Council and the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea are recommissioning the older peoples’ day opportunity services across the Bi-Borough area to offer a wide range of flexible services that can adapt to people’s changing needs whilst offering targeted support where required.

The procurement opportunity is divided into three lots: Community Support, Age Well Centres/Hubs, and Day Centres. Each lot has multiple ‘sub-lots’ with additional service specific requirements.

This is a reminder that Kensington & Chelsea Social Council (KCSC), in partnership with Westway Trust, is working on updating their online directory of organisations delivering in Kensington and Chelsea. 

RBKC's Lancaster West Neighbourhood Team is excited to offer a new opportunity through RBKC’s Green Skills Academy: the Level 3 Energy Awareness Course. Funded by RBKC and provided by National Energy Action (NEA), this course is perfect for anyone looking to make a real difference in the community.

Whether you’re working in a community-facing role within a local organisation or an RBKC resident eager to improve energy efficiency, this course will equip you with the skills and knowledge to provide energy-saving advice to households.

Fundraising Magazine and Charity Finance want to find out how happy charities are with their CRM packages and what they need to be able to do with their data.

By completing the questionnaire you will be put in the running to win a £100 John Lewis voucher. Do feel free to ask colleagues for input if they are better placed to answer certain questions.

Your information will be reported on an aggregated, non-attributable basis, so please be assured you may answer candidly and in confidence.

The deadline to complete the questionnaire is Friday 21 March.

Come and speak to an expert in harmful practices at RBKC Local Safeguarding Children Partnership's twice monthly online drop-in sessions.

In response to feedback at the recent Harmful Practices Conference, the Harmful Practices Operational Group (HPOG) are excited to launch twice-monthly drop-in sessions for all professionals working in the Bi-borough and H&F. These sessions offer a safe, judgment-free space to discuss cases, ask questions, and build confidence in identifying and responding to harmful practices.

This network supports care-experienced NHS staff of all ages.

Peer support plays a vital role in boosting well-being and connecting with others who have similar experiences can help build self-esteem, confidence, and lasting friendships.

This peer support group connects NHS staff with care experience to celebrate achievements and foster support.

Allies, including non-care-experienced colleagues who wish to support care leavers, are also welcome. It's important that past experiences won’t affect your future within the NHS.

The Young K&C Achievement Awards, taking place on 19 June 2025, are an opportunity to recognise and celebrate the achievements made by voluntary and community organisations and people working with children and young people across Kensington and Chelsea.

Nominations are now open to all current Young K&C members, to put forward nominations that showcase the incredible standard of service provided to children and young people across Kensington and Chelsea.
