Winter Wellness Directory for Hillingdon

Winter Wellness Directory for Hillingdon residents

H4All are delighted to share our Winter Wellness Directory 2022/23 with you and trust you will find it useful. We are profoundly aware that this information is more necessary than ever this year, with the cost-of-living crisis impacting the majority of households. London is the debt capital of the UK. According to the Money & Pensions Service, a staggering 27% of Londoners are in need of debt advice. Until recently, the most common form of debt was rent arrears, but CAB research has revealed that, in the last couple of years, this has been overtaken by energy debt. A recent poll by the GLA found some worrying statistics:

  • 30% of Londoners are ‘just about managing’
  • 20% of Londoners are ‘financially struggling’
  • 20% of lower income Londoners have gone without food or essential items or relied on external support in the last six months

From our broad range of work across the borough, we know that Hillingdon residents are reflected in these figures. This directory aims to give you a comprehensive guide to help you navigate these challenges and stay well. We will keep the document regularly updated. On behalf of the entire H4All team, I wish you a very healthy and safe Winter season.

-Vicki Harrison-Carr, Head of Community Development

Day of the Older Person 2022

On 1st February, staff from H4All’s Community Development and MyHealth Hillingdon teams were delighted to participate in the Day of the Older Person event in Uxbridge. They engaged face to face with over 80 people, with a constant flow of visitors to our stands until 2.00pm when the singer started. This prompted a few people to dance! Encouragingly, it was busier than the previous event I attended, and staff loved seeing older people out and about and enjoying themselves again.

Carers Trust Hillingdon Fair 2022

The fabulous Carers Fair is back!! Making caring visible, valued and supported Hillingdon Carers Fair is organised by Carers Trust Hillingdon and the London Borough of Hillingdon to mark national Carers Week.

As well as celebrating and recognising Hillingdon’s army of unpaid carers, the purpose of the event is to provide as much information to carers as possible, give them the opportunity to talk to support services face-to-face and to raise awareness of caring to help people to recognise themselves as carers. Every year the Careers Trust identify and register at least 50 new carers who are passing through the shopping centre just going about their daily lives unaware that there is help available.

As well as a great range of stalls from voluntary and statutory organisations that provide help, support, information and services to carers, the event will be attended by the Mayor of Hillingdon.

The carers fair will take place on Tuesday 7th June 2022.
