Supporting your health and wellbeing!
Social prescribing across Bexley
There are many non-medical issues that can make people feel stressed, isolated or unwell.
Community Connect is a new service supporting local people to improve their health and wellbeing by connecting them with activities, support and services in the community.
Our Community Wellbeing Co-ordinators can help you to find support for issues outside of the usual care that your GP or nurse may be able to provide.
First, they will talk through any problems that you are having and find out what is key to your wellbeing, then help you to find activities and services that may make a difference to your life and offer you support you to access them.
