Tiverton Wellbeing

5.0

Tiverton Wellbeing offers personalised one-to-one social prescribing support for Tiverton patients. Our Social Prescribers listen, explore what matters to you, and connect you with local activities, services and organisations to support your health and wellbeing. The team works closely with GPs and other healthcare professionals, community and voluntary organisations, as well as other service providers in the area. How it works: your Social Prescriber will help you discuss what matters, keep discussions confidential (with safety exceptions), and may signpost you to additional local services. You can be referred by your GP or another organisation, or you can refer yourself via Joy (Make a referral) if you are registered with Amicus Health (Clare House Surgery, Bampton, Witheridge, Morchard Bishop and Cheriton Fitzpaine) or Castle Place Practice. The service can signpost to Employment/education/training/volunteering, Housing/benefits/financial advice, Healthy living and weight loss, Social/hobbies/interest groups, and Therapy/support groups. Current activities include weekly groups such as Goal and Gather (Mondays) and Ways to Wellbeing (Thursdays), plus the HOPE Programme (Help Overcoming Problems Effectively). Access is via self-referral (Joy) or GP referral. If you have questions, please email d-icb.tivertonwellbeing@nhs.net or leave a voicemail on 01884 210438.
