    AbstractAs part of the NHS long-term strategy to meet the medical and non-medical needs of patients, there is growing acceptance that the traditional model of service delivery can no longer meet current challenges. This has led to the co-creation of services with patients and other stakeholders such as the voluntary and community sector to help deliver these. Social prescribing, which is now available through the NHS, is one such option that allows individual patients with a social need to access local health resources and social support outside the NHS.
