Training workshops are being held aimed at realising the benefits of increasing the use of green social prescribing within health and care provision.

 

The South Yorkshire Integrated Care Partnership is a partner in a national test and learn project to realise the benefits of increasing the use of green social prescribing within health and care provision.

 

During the two hour, practical face-to-face training workshop, participants will gain a greater understanding of the principles of nature connectedness, how they are linked to wellbeing and how they can use elements of nature connection in their everyday practice.

 

Sessions will take place in September, October and November across various locations in Barnsley, Sheffield, Rotherham and Doncaser, including at Wortley Hall on 12 and 13 September from 10.30am-12.30pm.

 

The training is open to anyone who works with people and who has conversations about wellbeing and support, such as social prescribers, link workers, GPs, health champions, community workers from community development organisations, health staff, physiotherapists, nurses, carers and support PAs.

 

This session is part of the national Green Social Prescribing Pilot, funded by South Yorkshire ICB and delivered by Sheffield and Rotherham Wildlife Trust.
