Everyone needs a bit of help from time to time. Social prescribing is a way of helping you deal with the things in your life that can make you feel unhappy or anxious. Addressing these things takes a little extra time and support. So rather than giving you a prescription for a medicine, social prescribing can help you to access a wide range of activities and support in your local community that can help you turn things around.

What is Social Prescribing?

  • A 121 support service that aims to connect you to community services and activities that support your health & wellbeing using a therapeutic approach.
  • A confidential space to talk to a designated link worker.
  • A space to explore issues that are negatively affecting your physical and mental health and overall wellbeing.
  • Practical, helpful and non-judgmental support.
  • A place to receive advice, guidance and advocacy.
  • Support to access services, support organisations and community groups.
  • Onward referrals to support services.
  • A service to improve hope for the future, social connection and independence.

 

Please Note:
This service is currently only funded for Abergavenny, Monmouth and Chepstow areas. If you live in another area of Monmouthshire, we can link you to services in your area. Please get in touch.
