King's Health Partners co-ordinate the Mind and Body Programme to improve holistic care for people across mental and physical health and taking account of social aspects of everyday life.

Approximately 1 in 3 residents in south east London live with one or more long term conditions like diabetes, lung disease, heart disease, conditions of the joints and muscles, neurological conditions or conditions that effect multiple bodily systems like chronic pain.

If you have one or more of these conditions it can be harder to live your life as you’d like. Research shows your physical health and life circumstances play a big part in mental and emotional wellbeing and vice versa. Decent housing, an income that is stable and adequate and positive relationships with others are all important for keeping well. However many services and supports that help people with their physical health don’t consider wellbeing and many wellbeing services and supports don’t consider physical wellbeing. And many health related services don’t consider the life circumstances of people when making recommendations about health treatments.

This project is about developing a resource which brings together examples of services and activities across south east London which consider Mind, Body and life circumstances, which help keep people healthy, or for people who already have long term conditions, which helps recognise and deal with emotional and/or practical issues so that they are more able to focus on doing things that prevent health from worsening.

If you are a south east London resident over 18 and have a long term condition or are a carer of someone with one or more long term conditions please take a few minutes to fill in the survey to inform the development of this resource to support people.

  • The King’s Health Partners’ Mind and Body Programme aims to improve holistic care, taking into account mental and physical health as well as wider aspects which effect health. This survey asks about your experience of living with a long-term condition  and what kind of support would help you live well. We are especially interested in support that considers your physical health, mental wellbeing and day-to-day life together.

    Your answers will help us understand what matters most to residents and what service providers could do differently to make support as effective as possible. 

    Please take a few minutes to tell us what is important to you in this short survey which will close at 5 pm on Tuesday 16 June 2026.
