North East London Integrated Care Board (ICB)
The North East London Integrated Care Board is currently involved in joint commissioning for children's services and addressing past service failures in mental health and SEND.
Hackney Council's Cabinet Procurement and Insourcing Committee approved a tender in July 2026 for children's occupational therapy services, valued up to £4.7 million, with a preferred option to jointly commission with the North East London Integrated Care Board (ICB), which is responsible for planning and delivering integrated health and care services. Separately, Ofsted identified 'widespread failures' in Redbridge's Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) partnership, including the ICB, in November 2025, necessitating a Priority Action Plan.
Redbridge's Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) are expanding, responding to a Regulation 28 notice issued to the North East London ICB in August 2023 following an inquest that found failings in under-resourced services. The ICB's performance, including its role in accident and emergency waiting times and winter planning, was also discussed by Tower Hamlets' Health and Adult Scrutiny Sub-Committee in September 2025.
