Thriving Communities
Championing, supporting and sharing the work of thriving community groups
Thriving Communities is a new national support programme for voluntary, community, faith and social enterprise groups, supporting communities impacted by COVID19 in England, working alongside social prescribing link workers.
Thriving Communities will help you to share your learning, gain new ideas, access funding and develop partnerships across sectors.
Social Prescribing
One in five GP appointments focus on wider social needs, rather than acute medical issues.
Social prescribing presents the NHS and local authorities with an opportunity to help people make use of existing community services, resources and facilities in order to meet their personal needs and free up GP time.
