Social prescribing is about helping people to live the best life they can. A life that is defined by them. Not one that is limited by the place in which they live, who they are, or the resources available to them. Social prescribing means supporting people, via social prescribing link workers, to make community connections and discover new opportunities, building on individual strengths and preferences, to improve health and wellbeing.

It is about understanding that people’s health is not just a medical matter. Isolation, struggles with mental health or living with various long term conditions can all make it difficult for people to get on with their lives. People will always be able to get the medical care and treatment they need but on its own it’s not always enough. So NHS England and NHS Improvement have committed to funding social prescribing link workers in every primary care network across England.

Link workers are key to social prescribing. But so are the GPs and PCN teams who refer into them. And so are the voluntary and community groups who provide the range of activities and support that people can be linked into. And so are the commissioners, local authorities and others who can help organisations to join up their plans for social prescribing. 

Join us in this Social Prescribing Day Tweet chat to share your views on why social prescribing matters, what is good about social prescribing, what could be improved, and what else would help to get social prescribing embedded where you work.

@WeNurses For me SP helps people to make the link between their health and their lives - not everything that affects your health can be solved medically. Means access to community, a sense of purpose and belonging and empowerment! #WeMDT #SocialPrescribingDay
@The_Debs_Effect
12 March 2020 20:11
@SianB23 @WeNurses #WeMDT sometime its the first time people have ever asked that. I know I was shocked after 40 years in the system. I thought he was trying to trick me. I really did not know what to say. I had had the 'experts' telling me what to do upto that point

@SekeramMohan @WeNurses #WeMDT true but if the person does not know what the root cause is the GP will be hard to get them to understand it. I had many years of counseling and therapy before art came along

@AmyMaryRose
12 March 2020 20:17
@WeNurses As having experienced social prescribing I was able to feel part of a community, with a purpose & a sense of belonging. I was able to use my strengths, skills & hobbies as part of my recovery, which was like nothing else I had experienced during my recovery! #weMDT

@SarahatEdberts
12 March 2020 20:25
@WeNurses #weMDT There is a clear link to the work that Michael Marmot has done and presented recently in his 2020 Review. A sense of control is vital for health and wellbeing, and link workers are able to help people gain that sense of control
@SianSykes85
12 March 2020 20:25
@WeNurses Communities will benefit from a great range of diverse backgrounds. Thinking about our Parkinson’s disease groups who self sustain their exercise group with no regular professional. This builds on their self esteem and increases motivation and support for new persons #WeMDT

@WeNurses On a practical level, social prescribing to local services ensures levels of use that justify resources. Have volunteered for several projects/services that struggle for attendees despite massive local identified needs that then shut - reducing community support #WeMDT

@WeNurses 1)As a GP, #socialprescribing has really supported my patients and given individuals the support and care they require. In 10m consultation it can be difficult to tackle root cause issues in any real depth. Having link workers embedded in my practice has facilitated this. #WeMDT

@WeNurses #WeMDT #socialprescribing correct knowledge about it. From a service user perspective many people think it is a prescription so do not want any more medication. Plus of course finances, you cannot expect the VACS to keep funding courses without funding them correctly.

@SianB23 @WeAHPs #WeMDT I love the CHIME framework. I have learnt all about it on my MSc in Mental health recovery and social inclusion degree with @dr_aud It has been the next stage in my journey #nothingcanstopmenow https://t.co/e9jVGcejHS

@WeNurses Without a doubt, education on its benefits to all health care professionals and stakeholders (including patients!) #WeMDT , and also ensuring that all professionals are encouraged to sociallly prescribe. It shouldn’t be down to just one individual!

@mathews_orla @LiveWellWakey @WeNurses #WeMDT now you see why I am so passionate about #socialprescribing and the benefits it brings. I was told my life was over and I tried to end it quicker, now there is no stopping me trying to change it for others being told that

@bevtayloryork Good question! The digital inclusion guide has lots of good examples (includes social prescribing on pg17+31) And some case studies pgs40-49 on orgs offering digital skill sessions to those who are not digitally empowered (e.g older people) #WeMDT https://digital.nhs.uk/about-nhs-digital/our-work/digital-inclusion

@WeHealthVisitor The elephant in the room... when social distancing is the prescription of the day (#Covid_19) how do we ensure people can still benefit from #SocialPrescribing, what creative / virtual measures can be taken to ensure people stay connected in their community? #WeMDT
