In March 2024 we published an ambitious five year strategy which sets out how we want to increase the extent we meet the needs of older people in East London.

- Homerton and The Royal London are jointly commissioned until end March 2029. Newham has been extended to the end of June 2026. Whipps Cross is due to be re-procured, with a short extension under consideration, we aim to jointly bid for this with our neighbouring AUKs.
