Wellbeing means different things to different people.
For some, it’s about getting fit, for others it is healthy eating, meeting up with a friend for a cuppa, taking the dog for a walk, meeting new people, or volunteering.
Is there a new hobby you’d love to try but feel self-conscious about joining the local club? Do you need help to stop smoking?
If you’re feeling anxious or depressed would you like to meet others who may be feeling the same?
There is always lots happening in Thamesmead and a range of support on offer.

Shaping Thamesmead
The London Borough of Bexley, the Royal Borough of Greenwich and Peabody have been working together on a programme called Shaping Thamesmead. Shaping Thamesmead is about working together towards a Thamesmead where residents are more connected to neighbours, services and other communities and experience better mental health and wellbeing.
We would like to hear about your experiences and what you wish could be different in Thamesmead. This will help us to get a better picture of what the community needs now, and in the future, to help improve your mental health and wellbeing. If you have a few minutes to spare, we would be grateful if you could complete our short mental health and wellbeing survey by clicking here.
