Vitamin D

 

The vitamin D campaign addresses the significant deficiency in the Tower Hamlets population.  We are striving to a) increase the awareness of vitamin D deficiency and its adverse effects, b) increase supplementation uptake by ensuring there is consistent guidance and advice given by healthcare professionals.  In order to achieve this we are in the process of creating a website with sections for the public and for healthcare professionals, which is a comprehensive and up to date source of information about the issue.  Finally we will run a literature campaign within health centres in the borough to promote the campaign and the website launch.
