People have been asking for care to be provided closer to their homes for a long time. At the same time, Haringey residents have to travel further to access diagnostic tests than people in other boroughs, with fewer facilities available within Haringey.

Wood Green is one of the most accessible areas in Haringey, with fantastic transport links, cycle network infrastructure and car parks for those who need to drive. We believe this is a real opportunity to improve access to diagnostic tests in a population who are currently underserved.
