Our story

In 2006, a group of Primary Care clinicians in Westminster came together to improve the way local residents were supported. They set up Central London Healthcare (CLH) as a Community Interest Company (CIC) with a focus on training and research for General Practices and their patients.

Following a business transfer in April 2023, Central London Healthcare CIC became Healthcare Central London Ltd (HCL). HCL delivers best-in-class care across England and beyond.

Our purpose

Our purpose

With a growing and ageing population in the UK and a high incidence of long-term health conditions, such as asthma and diabetes, Primary Care clinicians are under enormous pressure. We believe a community-focused approach is required – one that reflects the changing needs of patient care and that has local residents at its heart.

Guided by Healthcare Central London’s governance framework and core values, we work with our patients, Primary Care Networks (PCNs) and Practices across Westminster to solve problems through trust, collaboration and innovation. Together, we provide high quality and equitable health and wellbeing services to local residents and are a strong voice for patients and Practices within the wider healthcare system.

Our governance framework

Our people

Our elected Executive Board of Directors is made up of GPs and Practice Managers from our four PCNs in Westminster who have a wealth of experience across healthcare and business. Our Board members work closely with our Senior Leadership Team and partner organisations to deliver on the objectives of Healthcare Central London (HCL).
