Social Prescribing

We now employ Social Prescribers in partnership with RUILS and our neighbouring practices at Broad Lane and Park Road surgery . They are there to help link our patients in with organisations, typically in the voluntary and charitable sectors, where that support may be helpful. You can watch a short film on this about Social Prescribing: Transforming Health for London.

Please do talk to us or RUILS if you think this service might help you.

There are other short films available explaining more if you’re particularly interested:
