Social Prescribing

Many things affect your health and well-being. GPs tell us, that a lot of people visit them feeling isolated lonely or stressed out by; work, money, and housing problems.

These are issues that can't be fixed by doctors and medicine alone. At its most basic a Social Prescription offers the kind of help that doesn't come in a tube or a bottle. The idea behind Social Prescribing is to help you have more control over your healthcare and find ways to manage your needs in a way that suits you.

Watch this short video or read the full transcript below.

 

What is social prescribing?

There are lots of different ways of providing Social Prescribing Services. It often starts with a conversation, perhaps with a Link Worker, a Support Broker, or a Community Navigator. They are there to listen to you and put you in touch with whatever you might need to feel better.

That might mean being introduced to a community group, a new activity or a local club. It could be legal advice, or volunteers to help around the house. It might just be information and guidance, a bit of inside knowledge on your situation and what local resources there are available. It could even be some support in how to create something new.

Studies show that individuals with social prescriptions get better and feel better faster than those treated with medicine alone and because it works it's happening more and more.
