Havering Local Area Coordinators

We have Local Area Coordinators (LACs) in some areas of Havering that support you in your community.

There is a Local Area Coordinator (LAC) in specific patch areas in Romford, Rainham, Collier Row and Harold Hill.

Local Area Coordinators support you to build your own vision for a good life, finding solutions to any problems, and drawing on family and community resources.

This means that instead of assessing or signposting people into services, they can:

  • invest enough time in understanding what a good life looks like to you or your family, and how you could get there
  • help you to build your own capacity and connections, so that you can stay strong and independent
  • build new community connections or capacity where they don’t exist

There is no referral process or threshold. If you live in one of the areas covered by the service, give your Local Area Coordinator a call.

Visit the website to find the contact details of the Local Area Coordinator in your area.
