Lewisham Black VCS Network

The Lewisham Black Voluntary Network (LBVN) for community sector organisations is an independent association of Black charitable service leaders and social entrepreneurs operating in Lewisham. We believe in the power of collaboration to create a better community and taking action with urgency and care to serve those who need us the most.

How we're partnering with the Alliance

Access to NHS spaces

We have been working in partnership with SEL ICB to make better use of NHS buildings as spaces that benefit local people. Our aim is to help micro, grassroots and by-and-for VCSE organisations access these spaces for free to deliver activities and support in the heart of their communities. By making better use of NHS estates, we can ensure local organisations have the room they need to provide vital, culturally responsive services and help tackle health inequalities across south east London.
