Social Prescribing
Transforming how we support you
Health, wellbeing and support services in South West Cardiff are working together in new ways to improve health and wellbeing. If you’re a patient at one of the practises below, you can benefit from the new services and initiatives listed in this leaflet. Please make sure your GP practice has your current phone number in order to receive support from the services listed.
Wellbeing Services
Not all problems with health can be solved with medication or operations. Our new wellbeing team can help you to access a range of local services and activities to boost your wellbeing, help you get more active or resolve issues with debt, benefits or housing.
While social distancing restrictions are in place support could include a regular phone call to see how you’re doing, a letter sent to you with activities to do at home or help to access online activities and services.
What do I need to do? Nothing, your GP, pharmacist, nurse or reception team will refer you using our online social prescribing referral service, Elemental, or if you would like to refer yourself, call your practice and ask to be referred for ‘social prescribing’.
