Social Prescribing

Social prescribing offers members practical support for managing their own mental health problems, encouraging individuals to take control through self-management. It enables the service to refer members to local and non-clinical services, supporting their mental health and wellbeing in a holistic way.

Offering information and advice about mental health, services, support, and self-management
Available by phone, text, online and face to face
Connects people with support and community resources
Motivates and encourages people
Directs people to specialist advice and support services, e.g. Citizens Advice, housing support

We offer up to 3 sessions as part of our social prescribing service. We will identify your needs and the services that can support you – we will refer you to this service. Once the referral has been made, we can support you in accessing the service, through providing additional reminders, checking in with you, encouragement or accompanying you to your first session – this is known as a warm handover.

Benefits of a warm handover:

Helpful for people who may feel overwhelmed, isolated, or unsure about engaging with new services
Increases the likelihood of engagement with the service
Creates a smoother, more compassionate transition between services
Helps you to feel supported
