A day to celebrate Social Prescribing, not just in our PCN but world wide.

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.(NHS England,2025)

Our team of social prescribers at the PCN can help support and signpost for various issues including employment , Loneliness, carer support, volunteering opportunities, Money worries and benefits, poor housing and much more.

You can be referred by your GP or self refer by contacting us or your practice.
