The Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland Integrated Care Board (LLR ICB) is currently leading a public engagement about how people use local health services.
To support this, the Leicestershire & Rutland Community Foundation is offering funding to local VCSE organisations to raise awareness of NHS 111, Pharmacy First, Urgent Treatment Centres and GP services — helping people better understand when and how to access the right care. Additionally, gathering views from people about health services including non-urgent GP appointments across Leicester and Leicestershire.
This short-term funding is aimed at groups working in LE1–LE5 postcodes and surrounding areas, especially those who can reach:
- New and young families
- People experiencing homelessness
- Refugees and asylum seekers
- Eastern European and Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic communities
- Communities facing barriers to healthcare access
Eligible activities include outreach events, translation of health information, self-care workshops, discussion groups and promoting participation in the current NHS engagement.
