We are looking for a someone to join our established Social Prescribing service who can motivate and empower others.

Working alongside GP practices, Social Prescribers help patients and families connect with health and community services which will make a real difference to their emotional and physical wellbeing, accessing support that will enable them lead more independent, resilient and healthier lives.

As a team leader, you will support a range of Social Prescribers working across several Primary Care Networks, providing induction, supervision, training and development. You’ll ensure targets and outcomes are met, and share knowledge and resources across the team, and advise on more complex cases.
