How can the faith sector support social prescribing?


The 4th International Social Prescribing Network conference programme was packed with great speakers, the latest research and provided an opportunity for anyone interested or involved in social prescribing to come together. The conference, which was on the 10th and 11th March 2022, was recorded and videos of sessions are now being made available. 

I was involved in a breakout session on the question of 'How can the faith sector support social prescribing?' This session shared examples of how different faith organisations are supporting and collaborating with social prescribing schemes and other VCFSE organisations. Also involved were Dr Peter Rookes, Birmingham Council of Faiths - Faith Organisations and Social Prescribing, and Sufia Alam - London Muslim Centre - providing perspectives from Community Organisations.
