Social Prescribing

Patients are encouraged to seek assistance from our local Social Prescribers (RUILS), either through referral or self-referral. RUILS, in collaboration with the Richmond GP Alliance, administers Social Prescribing services throughout Richmond. Social Prescribing aims to empower individuals to manage their health and well-being by facilitating connections with activities and support within the local community.

The process commences with a referral from a GP or another healthcare professional to one of our designated link workers. Subsequently, the link worker will arrange a meeting with you to gain insight into your circumstances and aspirations for change or improvement. Through this collaborative approach, the link worker dedicates time to understanding your needs, and together, you will explore the array of options available within your community.
