New report explores collaboration between social housing and the social prescribing community.

Innovations In Social Prescribing the role of housing cover

Developed in partnership with the National Academy of Social Prescribing, HACT, Royal Voluntary Service and Housing LIN, this report outlines our first steps in building awareness and connection between social housing and the social prescribing community.

Further to February's HAPPI Hour webinar with the National Academy of Social Prescribing (NASP), 'Social Prescribing: it’s a better prescription (opens new window)', we co-designed 3 sessions to promote the virtues of social prescribing and showcase a selection of housing associations and third sector organisations on how they have embraced social prescribing.

This resultant report demonstrates what can be done and what more is needed to connect and support local partnerships between housing and social prescribing services.
