- 📢 Expression of interest for the Global Social Prescribing Alliance Champions! 🌍
Be part of the movement to transform healthcare - Global Social Prescribing Alliance!
Social prescribing is paving the way for a more holistic, person-centered approach to health, connecting individuals to community-based support that nurtures wellbeing beyond traditional care.
BACKGROUND
In 2020, Gareth Presch and James Sanderson, came together to work on the opportunity to harness collective global initiatives aimed at creating new ways of delivering good health and wellbeing. The idea was to build a global community of leaders, who were committed to the principles of Social Prescribing, Personalised Care, and Innovation in the field of health and wellbeing.
The alliance worked closely with existing global networks to bring people together through a comprehensive series of events and webinars focussing on tackling some of the most pressing global health challenges.
The alliance was launched in February 2021 by the UK Secretary of State for Health and Social Care.
The Alliance has developed a series of products alongside global partners, including a ‘Global Playbook’ for social prescribing, training materials on the establishment of social prescribing, and site visits and teach in sessions bringing international partners together.
The Alliance has also supported the development of an independent global network of partners which is now represented by over 30 countries (social prescribing around the world).
The idea is to build a global community of leaders, who were committed to the principles of Social Prescribing, Personalised Care, and Innovation in the field of health and wellbeing.
