Webinar: Social Prescribing – New Insights and Recommendations from the VCSE Sector

Earlier this year, NHS England and Improvement commissioned National Voices to report on the roll out of social prescribing, and some of you will have attended workshops or contributed feedback.

The report on the work is being launched at a webinar on 9 September, 10-11.30am. The webinar will also include the launch of a new report by The Conservation Volunteers (TCV) Social Prescribing: How do we sustain social prescribing in the wake of Covid-19?’

The NHS’s new strategic commitment to social prescribing represents a welcome recognition of the distinctive role of the VCSE sector in supporting people to live well, whatever their health conditions, and in building healthy communities. It is a key opportunity for our sector to establish effective partnerships with the NHS.

This unique partnership event will present, compare and discuss the findings and recommendations from two recent research projects, reflecting the views and experiences of hundreds of people from across the VCSE sector.

Speakers

• James Sanderson, Director of Personalised Care at NHS England and Improvement
• Craig Lister, Managing Director of TCV’s Green Gym
• Kate Jopling, National Voices’ Associate, who was closely involved in our social prescribing workshops.

We will be announcing further speakers as they are confirmed.
