It is the third most diverse borough in London and the eighth most diverse borough in England and Wales – with over 1703 languages spoken and 56.8% of residents identifying as ethnically diverse. Our communities bring a wealth of traditions, perspectives and talents that enrich every aspect of life, from our thriving businesses to our schools, spaces, and celebrations.As our seven towns are different, residents in each town face different challenges and there is a wide variation in socio-economic outcomes. That’s why our policy is underscored by a seven-town approach, which enables us to better understand the needs, inequalities and aspirations of our communities. This is illustrated by our annual public health report, which highlights the vastly different outcomes that our residents face. For example, residents in Northfields can expect to live almost six years longer than those in Norwood Green. Parts of Southall have some of the worst health outcomes in Northwest London, and Southall also experienced the highest rates of COVID-19 related deaths in the borough.Adult Social Care in Ealing Ealing provides funded social care to just under 4,000 residents using a budget of just over £120m per annum. Our service aspires to outcome focused support plans that maximize the enormous strengths and assets that residents and communities have. Driven by a strong commitment to co-production we have a vibrant structure to hear the voices of those who draw on social care and their carers. Following a Local Government Association peer review in 2023 we have developed a multi-year delivery plan which focuses on strong quality assurance and delivering choice and control for our residents. Following a review in 2024 the LGA report said ““You have achieved outstanding progress over the past 22 months, successfully meeting each of the recommendations from the peer challenge.”We are not resting on our laurels and as our CQC assurance report indicates there is still more to do.
