Hampshire and Isle of Wight Social Prescribing Network Conference on 23rd November 2022 9am - 2pm at the Winchester Vineyard Church
There is a growing recognition that Social Prescribing can have a positive, transformational effect on the health and wellbeing of those who engage with it.  This conference will explore 'Why Social Prescribing Works?'.

The day starts with a Mindfulness Testimonial & Taster Session followed by a talk about regional and national perspectives on the impact of Social Prescribing and the Health Sector.

Following a refreshments/comfort break there will be three one hour Workshops to choose from:
Workshop 1 - Tackling Health Inequalites
