A new podcast from the team at Spring Social Prescribing, discussing all things Spring Prescribing.
SPRING Social Prescribing operates across Northern Ireland & Scotland and is an innovative approach to healthcare that links medical care to (typically) non-clinical, locally delivered support services. It enables medical professionals to refer their patients to a range of activities and services, recognising a social model of health in which wellbeing is determined by a variety of factors. SPRING empowers patients and communities, supports greater independence, reduces reliance on primary healthcare, and ultimately delivers better outcomes for people and society.
Spring Social Prescribing is made possible thanks to National Lottery Players, with funding from the National Lottery Community Fund, the largest funder of community activity in the UK.
