East London Cardiovascular Disease Prevention (ELoPE)
What we do
Our aim is to reduce cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in our local community, working in partnership with the British Heart Foundation.
Newham, Tower Hamlets and other local boroughs have some of the highest levels of childhood obesity and diabetes in the country. ELoPE is an effort by the local healthcare community to address a problem that’s reaching epidemic levels.
It's a team effort and we couldn’t possibly do this without the support of our patients, partners and community. Working with schools and local businesses, we want to ensure a healthier future for our area and that starts here.
