Social Prescribing Link worker

Link Workers are trained professionals working alongside GPs. They are able to help you to get the care and support you need. A Link Worker will give you time to talk about what is important to you, and support and empower you to access the most appropriate services for your needs. Examples of what they can help you with are:

money advice – benefits, debt and budgeting
healthy lifestyle advice and physical activity
education and learning
housing and welfare
access to creative activities
befriending
counselling
employment
training
volunteering

To access our support please contact the practice and request a call back from one of our Link workers – Hetty Beyer-Russell or Alastair Crammond.
