How and why we process health data

We transform information from a range of sources to understand our local population better.

Who we hold information about

We hold information about people we directly provide a service to and about people we have a responsibility for, as part of our public health and health improvement functions.

This will include residents of Lambeth, people receiving health and care services in Lambeth and people who work for or attend school in Lambeth.

As part of our statutory obligation to provide a public health advice service to our local NHS Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG), we also hold information on people resident within the boundaries of Central London who are registered with one of the CCG’s general practices.
