What is social prescribing?
Many things can affect our health and well-being which could include feeling isolated, lonely or stressed by work money and housing problems or living with a health condition.
Social prescribing helps people to improve their health, wellbeing and social welfare by connecting them to services and activities in their local community. This could include:
- social activities
- walking, well-being and fitness groups
- parent support groups
- arts, gardening and creative activities
- employment and training support
- housing and benefits support
