Happy Social Prescribing Day 💚

Just a little reminder that health isn’t only about doctors and medication — it’s also about connection, community, and doing the things that make us feel good.

Whether it’s joining a local group, getting outside, being creative, or just having someone to talk to… those things really matter.

Big shoutout to Barbara, Sasha, Judith and all the link workers, community groups, and volunteers who make this happen every day — you’re doing amazing work.

Let’s keep spreading the word and supporting each other 🤝

Well what a day yesterday was! The Winter Wellness Fair was a huge success and was very well attended! We couldn't have done it without the help of the other Wyre Integrated Network PCN staff who gave up their time to support us and help out with crafts and health checks, the staff from The Village Practice who helped out in the kitchen, and a huge thank you to Linda from Queensway Medical Centre PPG who took charge in the kitchen and ran it like a pro!

The money donated for teas and coffee's, came to £40, and was given to The Over 60's Club in Poulton to help towards the cost of dinners on Christmas Day.

And lastly, a huge thank you to all the groups and organisations who attended, sang, cycled and demonstrated, we truly couldn't have done it without you!

Merry Christmas! Barbara and Sasha 😀

Huge thank you to everyone who has donated to our food drive so far — your generosity is already making a real difference for families in need. ❤️

We’re off to a strong start, but we’re not done yet! Demand is higher than ever, and we still need more non-perishable items like canned goods, pasta, rice, and cereal.

If you’re able, please consider adding a little extra to your next grocery trip or spreading the word by sharing this post. Every contribution, big or small, helps feed a family in our community.

Thank you for caring. Let’s keep the momentum going! 🙌🥫
