SOCIAL PRESCRIBING NETWORK
Collaborating to support social prescribing around the world
It's Social Prescribing Day on Thursday 14th March 2024
What is the Social Prescribing Network?
The Social Prescribing Network is a free network connecting people who are interested in social prescribing. We act as a central hub to connect many other social prescribing thought leaders, organisations, groups and networks to ensure that information, research and knowledge is shared as widely as possible.
We aim to provide an independent, holistic, objective, grassroots voice to drive innovations and best practice of social prescribing and to support the spread of social prescribing in the UK and internationally. The Social Prescribing Network also supports research applications and projects to recruit and disseminate research information.
