Hounslow Council has opened the Health Outreach Team (HOT) shop in The Treaty Centre. You can pop in when you're out shopping to get some great health and wellbeing support and information.

Hounslow’s Health Outreach Team (HOT) has a brand new look for its shop premises right in the heart of town.
The Council-backed team was formed during the coronavirus pandemic to support residents in staying safe and getting their vaccinations.
Since then the work of the team has grown to include all kinds of health and wellbeing support and guidance to help everyone in Hounslow feel better.
The team is regularly out and about at venues across the borough thanks to its very own roving outreach bus.
It provides services such as blood pressure checks, and information about services like stop smoking support.
The Health Outreach Team also works closely with a variety of services such as sexual health, social prescribing, and Healthy Hounslow.
Now, you don’t have to wait for Hounslow’s HOT to come to you, because you can visit the team at its dedicated shop premises in Hounslow’s Treaty Centre.
You can find the Health Outreach Team shop at Unit 18 in The Treaty Centre, on Hounslow High Street. And you won’t have to look far for the ‘HOT shop’ because there’s a new shop sign to let everyone know that the team is in business.
Hounslow Council Cabinet Member for Adult Social Care, Public Health and Transformation, Councillor Samia Chaudhary said: “The Health Outreach Team is one of our borough’s real success stories. The team has been engaging with communities across Hounslow and making a real difference in people’s lives. It has been able to support so many people who may not have otherwise engaged with health services.
“Now, we have made it even easier for you to visit the Health Outreach Team through the base at The Treaty Centre. Pop in and see the Health Outreach Team when you’re in town.”
The Health Outreach Team shop is open Tuesday to Friday - 10am to 6pm and Saturday - 9am to 5pm.
