Social Prescribing

Our social prescribing link workers help patients to get the right support. Many different patients will be referred to social prescribing link workers.

They can include:
- People with long-term conditions
- Low level mental health issues
- Those who feel lonely or isolated
- Complex social needs
- and much more.

Generally, patients will speak with a link worker 6-12 times over a three month period. The link worker will connect you with activities, groups, and services in their community. This is for practical and emotional support to help you get back on your feet.

If you would like to speak with a Social Prescriber, then please call the surgery and speak to reception team.
