Thrive LDN
About
Thrive LDN is a participation-driven partnership that engages with, and responds to, the needs and insights of Londoners to improve mental health and wellbeing across London. They are a coalition of partners working towards the shared mission of ensuring everyone living or working in London has an equal opportunity for good mental health.
Two million Londoners experience some form of poor mental health every year and Londoners’ life satisfaction and feelings of self-worth are lower than the national average. Thrive LDN was established in response to this, with the aim of reducing the number of Londoners affected by poor mental health.
Thrive LDN was launched in July 2017 by the Mayor of London and London Health Board partners as a citywide public mental health partnership to ensure all Londoners have an equal opportunity to good mental health and wellbeing regardless of who they are and where they live. As a partnership, Thrive LDN brings together organisations from across sectors, creating an infrastructure for prevention, where public mental health is a collective responsibility and a common goal.
In 2017, things began with a series of open discussions with Londoners – to encourage everyone to think, talk and act more when it comes to mental wellbeing.
On 4 July 2024, Thrive LDN marked its seventh anniversary, and there has been real progress demonstrating that we can achieve great things when we work together. We have recently reflected upon the partnership working that has taken place during this time to support Londoners’ mental health and wellbeing.
