Since its creation, King’s Health Partners has led the way in breaking down barriers to combine basic and translational health research, clinical care and education to create world-leading improvements in healthcare.

We are building on our five-year strategy - ‘Delivering better health for all through high impact innovation' (PDF) - by accelerating progress in three areas:

Interwoven through these priorities is a mind and body approach - integrating mental and physical health across everything we do, as well as addressing the inequalities in health outcomes experienced by people with mental illness.  

Impact

We work across a range of topics and areas. By combining expertise and working across organisational boundaries, we aim to better deliver improvements for staff, students, patient, and the communities we serve.

The Impact Report 2022-23 (PDF) is our most recent showcase of achievements across teams and programmes. 

Our achievements are also set out in the Impact Report 2021-22 (PDF), and Impact Report 2020-21 (PDF).

Significant progress to align the NHS and academic partners has seen a transformation of health and care delivery in south east London. Over the years, the establishment of the clinical academic groups has underpinned substantial research funding investments, enabling the engine of world-class excellence in health research to be coupled with academic expertise in medical education and training. Through this strategic alignment of the partners, real progress has been made and the AHSC is working across all its programmes to get the best outcomes for the local population.
