Policy information sourced from Camden Local Plan
C1 Health and Wellbeing
The Council will improve and promote strong, vibrant and healthy communities through ensuring a high quality environment with local services to support health, social and cultural wellbeing and reduce inequalities.
Measures that will help contribute to healthier communities and reduce health inequalities must be incorporated in a development where appropriate.
The Council will require:
- development to positively contribute to creating high quality, active, safe and accessible places; and
- proposals for major development schemes to include a Health Impact Assessment (HIA).
We will:
- contribute towards the health priorities of the Health and Wellbeing Board and partners to help reduce health inequalities across the borough;
- support the provision of new or improved health facilities, in line with Camden’s Clinical Commissioning Group and NHS England requirements; and
- protect existing health facilities in line with Policy C2 Community facilities.
