As part of Social Prescribing Day 2026, we're celebrating the people who help connect care with communities across NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde.

Social prescribing starts with a conversation about what matters most to someone, helping them access local support for things like loneliness, mental wellbeing, housing, finances and caring responsibilities.

We want to thank our Community Links Workers, Care Navigators and partners in the third sector whose work helps people feel listened to, supported and more confident in managing their health and wellbeing.
