#SocialPrescribing "connects people with non-clinical support & services within their communities. While more commonly adopted in countries with govt health services, it is now gaining ground in the US. … covers a range of activities, including arts, culture, social groups, nature-based activities, & volunteer opportunities.
… It’s based on the idea that an individual’s health is directly related to their connection to the community in which they live, work, & grow."

Social problems can make you ill. This is why #SocialPrescribing was developed. Researchers led by #CharitéBerlin are now investigating whether help such as anti-stress courses or job counselling provided in GP practices contribute to better health.

Soziale Probleme können krank machen. Daher wurde das Soziale Rezept entwickelt. Ob Hilfen wie Antistresskurs oder Jobberatung, vermittelt in hausärztlichen Praxen, zu mehr Gesundheit beitragen, prüfen Forschende unter Leitung der #CharitéBerlin.

A report published this week found that green social prescribing schemes in #England have led to significant improvements in #wellbeing among the 8400 participants.
They were prescribed thing like #nature walks, #community #gardening and #TreePlanting, with researchers finding that not only were #happiness, #anxiety, and life satisfaction levels increased but such #SocialPrescribing is significantly cheaper than other #MentalHealth interventions.
It backs up step ‘N’ in my A-Z of steps to a better world: https://ethicalrevolution.co.uk/natural-nourishment/ 🚶♂️🌳

For many an increase of well-supported #SocialPrescribing is a key to addressing #mentalhealth problems among our young.... but research indicates that for the vulnerable & hard to reach, this is best carried out by people & #keyworkers the child already knows.
So rather than a whizz-bang new strategy & feasibility studies of new institutional responses, if we are going to makes social prescribing work better, we need to ramp up funding to expand the existing provision!

I became interested in #compassionateCommunities after seeing a patient with brain secondaries supported by friends to stay at home. I wanted to know how to make that level of support available for all our patients.
Connections are key to our health. Developing community builds social capital by encouraging connections. #SocialPrescribing can help, but also medicalises community connections and only works if there's activity to signpost people to. -
Look after your nature deficit! Protecting & expanding green spaces, & ensuring they are accessible, can be considered an investment in good health.

In sum, both individual mindset & motivation to participate in a social group AND the characteristics of the activity play a role in improving #wellbeing. We recommend both should be considered, e.g. for #socialprescribing or similar; consider person-activity fit.

Hello #mastronauts I'm interested in connecting with people who care about these things and how they interact - #health #SocialCare #arts #CreativeHealth #Culture #Wellbeing #SocialPrescribing #PrimaryCare #NHS #VCSE #SocialDeterminants
Hit me up, as the young people say -
I'll do an #introduction - I'm Cormac, I live in #Manchester, though about to move to the hills just outside (#NewMills). I do research on #climatechange #education - specifically #CarbonLiteracy - based in Manchester Metropolitan (MMU). Have previously worked on community-based health (#SocialPrescribing) #CommunityRadio, community learning/education, community development off-and-online (#Wikipedia) - with offshoots into #fuelpoverty, #activetravel, #occupationaltherapy... so a mixed bag. :-)
