Worcestershire County Council awarded a contract to Onside Independent Advocacy for a 12-month pilot of social prescribing in secondary care settings.

The pilot, funded by Health Education England and delivered in partnership with the Health and Care Trust, Acute Trust, and the three Worcestershire Clinical Commissioning Groups, provided a limited number of social prescribing roles to test the impact of social prescribing in secondary care.

The service used existing voluntary and community sector providers to bridge the gap between health care professionals and wider community provision of information and advice, complementing existing primary care social prescribing developments in Worcestershire.
