Newham is one of East London’s most diverse boroughs, home to over 350,000 people and transformed in recent years by the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and the ongoing regeneration of Stratford. The borough stretches from the busy commercial centre of Stratford and the emerging neighbourhoods around the Royal Docks down to East Ham, Forest Gate, and Plaistow.
Newham has one of the youngest populations of any London borough and significant levels of ethnic diversity, with large South Asian, African, and Eastern European communities. Many dental practices in the borough reflect this, with multilingual staff and a focus on accessible, affordable care.
