Social Prescription - Refer a patient or client

ABOUT: The “Connecting Communities – Social Prescription” is a low-level program which aims to support members of the Fraser Coast community over the age of 18 who would like to:

- Connect socially
- Make new friends
- Find out what is happening in their local area
- Be connected to local clubs, groups or activities
- Find exercise classes
- Try something new

Anyone referred to this program will work with a Link Worker who will help them identify their interests and what they may like to do socially.

The program uses a warm referral approach to connect community members with suitable activities and groups and is not a case management or counselling service. While we support clients to find suitable activities, they must be able and willing to engage with the program and attend social activities independently.

If you are not sure if your patient or client is suitable for this program, please feel free to contact the Program Leader Aline Smith on 4194 3000 or [email protected].
Thank you for your referral.
