Social prescribing

We are able to offer appointments with a social prescribing link worker. But, What does a social prescriber do? Social prescribing link workers give people time, focusing on ‘what matters to me?’ 

Social prescribing is an all-age, whole population approach that works particularly well for people who:

  • have one or more long term conditions
  • who need support with low level mental health issues
  • who are lonely or isolated
  • who have complex social needs which affect their wellbeing.

Our social prescribing link workers are-

Karen Price – Young Persons Social prescribing link worker

Jo Main – Adult Social Prescribing link worker

If you think a appointment with a social prescribing link work might help you, please speak to reception.
