Social Prescriber

What Is Social Prescribing? 

Supporting You With Your Wellbeing

Do you need help with:

• Introductions to clubs, social and activity groups
• Access to counselling and befriending services
• Support and care at home
• Overcoming loneliness and isolation
• Dealing with grief and loss
• Ensuring you receive all your benefits and entitlements
• Accessing work, training or education
• Housing support
• Low level mental health support

A Social Prescriber Can Help You (or the person you care for):

• By listening and discussing your needs and any worries
• Advising you about and connecting you with services available from ourselves, NHS, other charities, agencies, volunteer groups and Coventry City Council 
• By working alongside GP practice staff to provide “non-medical” options to assist with your health, wellbeing & social needs

Please ask for a referral through your GP or Reception Team.

This service is provided in partnership with Coventry Primary Care Network Groups
