In 2025, we were delighted to learn that we had been chosen to receive an award from the Pioneer Health Foundation Centenary Awards. The Pioneer Health Foundation existed to promote the legacy of the Pioneer Health Centre, an innovative health centre which ran in Peckham, south London, from 1926 to 1950. The Pioneer Health Centre – also known as the Peckham Experiment – was built on the principle that good health was more than simply an absence of disease, and that to really thrive, people need social engagement, a positive environment, good food, and agency over their lives. It has inspired generations of thinkers and activists, including the founders of Darnall Well Being. As they approached their 100th anniversary, the Pioneer Health Foundation took the positive and forward-looking decision to close and to divest their funding to organisations who can keep the spirit of the Pioneer Health Centre alive through action – and they selected Darnall Well Being as one of those organisations. We are really grateful to the Pioneer Health Foundation for their valuable recognition and support, and to the Peckham Experiment CIC for continuing their legacy.
