Social Prescribing at a glance

8 April 2016

This report is intended as an introductory online resource to encourage wider understanding and exploration of the benefits of social prescribing to promote wellbeing.

It is the result of a regional scoping exercise supported by Health Education England (HEE) working across the north west during 2015.

The document has been designed to promote consideration of the necessary issues to better understand and harness social prescribing assets. HEE hope it will help increase awareness of the type of social prescribing activity being delivered across a range of sectors, and will help encourage more collaborative action in order to promote individual and community wellbeing.
