Social Prescribing is a way in which we can help patients to link with a range of local, non-medical activities, they give patients time to focus on ‘What Matters to me’ and taking a holistic approach to health and well-being,

Our pharmacists work with and alongside the GPS within the PCN and take responsibility to clinically assess and treat patients using expert knowledge of medicines. All Pharmacists are qualified Prescribers.

Health and Wellbeing Coaches work alongside patients to coach and motivate, supporting them to become active participants in their own care by self-identifying their needs, setting goals, and implementing their personalised health and care plan.

Our Mental Health and Wellbeing Coach will work on a 1-1 basis with young people aged 11-18 years identified by the GP’s and Social Prescribers.
