We’re incredibly proud to share that we’ve been recognised as a Regional Champion in the Digital Innovation category at the first NHS Excellence Awards 🎉

In partnership with County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust and HMPPS, we launched an innovative Virtual Ward at HMP Frankland to tackle the unique challenges of delivering healthcare in a high-security prison.

By using secure digital technology, prison healthcare teams can now share real-time clinical information with hospital specialists, supporting faster decision-making, reducing unnecessary hospital visits, and improving patient care and experience.

This work has helped reduce costly and complex hospital transfers, while ensuring patients receive care equivalent to community standards.

A huge thank you to everyone involved in making this possible 👏

What an incredible day 💙

A huge well done and thank you to everyone who took part in Walk for Benny. The 13.1 mile journey around Durham wasn’t easy, but every single person showed amazing determination, strength and heart.

This walk meant so much, not just as a challenge, but as a way to support our Spectrum colleague and her nephew Benny as he bravely fights neuroblastoma. Seeing everyone come together, start together and finish together was truly special.

We’re so proud to share that £906 of our £1,000 target has already been raised 🎉 There’s still time to donate, and every little bit helps us get closer to helping Benny access life-saving treatment in Rome.

Let’s keep going and continue to Stand By Benny 💙Donate here: https://ow.ly/nRTS50YI7CA

This Saturday, you’re invited to walk with us!

We’ll be wearing our Stand By Benny t-shirts, come join us for a mile, say hello, or give us a wave along the route. The encouragement means more than you know.

This let's bust another myth!

If you think social prescribing is only for people with long term health conditions, it's not!

Social prescribing can support anyone with unmet needs affecting their health and wellbeing. It's particularly affective for those lacking confidence, skills or motivation to access support themselves.

It works especially well for people experiencing loneliness or isolation, mental health challenges, frequent GP or A&E visits for non-medical issues, complex social needs, or long term health conditions.

Myth: Social prescribing is only for people who do not want to take medication.

Fact: Social prescribing is a complementary approach to improving health and wellbeing. It addresses the social, emotional and practical factors that affect mental and physical health.

"Social Prescribing is just a prescription to the gym" ❌

✔️ Social prescribing is a personalised plan created with the individual and physical activity can be part of it, but on a wider scale it offers support based on the person's needs and could include arts, nature, education, social groups, financial advice, faith groups and much more.
