I’m Dawn the Young Persons Social Prescriber for Greater Peterborough Network working across the City of Peterborough.
Young Persons Social Prescribing is a part of personalised care connecting young people from 11 to 18 years with activities, groups and services in their community to meet social and emotional needs, which can impact their health and well-being, by working with them to create a personalised support plan.
If you are a young person or knows someone who would benefit from support, call me on 0333 332 4666 or email at gpn.youthsocialprescriber@nhs.net.
