Social prescribing is a method of referring people to non-medical services to support their health and well-being. It's based on the understanding that health is determined by a variety of social, economic, and environmental factors. Social prescribing aims to address people’s needs holistically by connecting them to community groups and statutory services for practical and emotional support. Tonight, Allan will share his thoughts on a recent presentation on Social Prescribing, and we will discuss real-world results and applications looking toward our ever-aging population.
