WHAT IS SOCIAL PRESCRIBING?
Social prescribing can help you to have more control over your health and find ways to improve how you feel in a way that suits you .
Social prescribing may be able to introduce you to a community group, a new activity, a local club, or they may help you find legal advice or debt counselling. They could even support you in creating something
new such as a gardening club, a fishing group, a 'men's shed' or a knit and knitter group.
