Following a very successful pilot, Social Prescribing is now being rolled out across all GP practices within the East Riding of Yorkshire.
Social Prescribing is a whole system collaborative approach delivered through a combination of Humber Teaching NHS Foundation Trust, the council’s sports, play and arts service, HEY MIND and Smile Foundation, the new Voluntary and Community Services provider which aims to improve the lives of East Riding residents by addressing the social causes of ill health and wellbeing.
