London Vision Next Steps: Ensuring a Healthy Future for Londoners
The London Vision Next Steps initiative aims to build on previous achievements by addressing health inequalities, engaging with communities, and developing new ambitions to ensure a healthy future for London. The program involves collaboration with partners, data-driven decision-making, and establishing a governance structure to support the vision's goals. Launching in November 2023, this effort will involve reviewing progress, launching a new governance structure, and reporting on achievements and challenges.

The Vision recognised that areas of focus can only be achieved if we address the following enablers to integration: making joint working and integration a reality in London taking action to attract, train and retain the workforce needed to transform services reimagining the health and care estate and rethinking how they are developed together making the most of opportunities created by digital transformation while bringing the public along establishing the right type of partnership working and collective oversight. 2

London Vision is reflective and remains relevant The London Vision 10 ambitions contribute towards making London the healthiest global city. London s demographic as well as its health and care systems have gone through significant change since 2020. It remains important that our vision for a healthier London reflects the challenges that Londoners currently face. We propose that, by strategically grouping the ambitions that we aim to tackle together, it would offer us the opportunity to respond more flexibly to Londoners needs as our partnership work develops. The below themes reflect our joint ambitions to tackle health inequalities in London, supported by four key enablers: workforce; digital innovation; building and land and integrated working.
