South West Academic Health Science Network (SW AHSN) July 2020
- The Institute for Social Prescribing supports innovative practice in social prescribing across South West England and beyond. Five test beds have been created.
- As part of a six-month insight gathering project, the SW AHSN is working to capture and share how social prescribing teams under the Institute for Social Prescribing were responding in the early days of the COVID-19 crisis, and to consider the important role of social prescribing to local communities, particularly in areas where health inequalities already exist. Interim report setting out the insights gathered from the end of March 2020 to end of June 2020 is available here.
