Healthy Community
We’re playing a meaningful role in local communities, by addressing unmet health needs and providing support to under-represented communities, to develop more sustainable ways of living.
Our areas of focus
Accessibility and inclusion
We’re removing barriers and making more of our services available to those who want our support.
Research, programmes and education
Our research into health outcomes enables us to support communities and address unmet health needs.
Social mobility
We're increasing employment opportunities to people from disadvantaged backgrounds or circumstances.
Free programmes for local communities
During 2021, more than 4,000 people benefited from our unique Programmes For All. These are free services, which address unmet health and wellbeing needs in the community, and extend our reach to people living on lower resources.
'Think apprenticeships first' provides local employment opportunities
Our apprenticeship programmes are providing opportunities for the local communities we operate in, and providing Nuffield Health with a route to attract new talent.
Tackling health inequalities in Manchester
We’re partnering with sport inclusion charity Access Sport to help tackle the unmet needs of 15,000 disadvantaged local young people and their families, based in the Greater Manchester area.
Supporting young innovators from the UK’s under-represented communities
We’ve partnered with Ingenuity, an initiative that supports social mobility by providing grants and mentorship to young entrepreneurs.
