Social Prescribing Service: Professional and self-referrals
High Intensity User Service: Professional referrals only
*If completing a referral on someone else’s behalf, you will need to obtain verbal consent prior to making the referral.

- Loneliness / social isolation / getting back into the community
- Mental and physical health

- Relationships / staying safe
P3 can provide one-to-one emotional and practical support for up to 8 weeks. A friendly link worker will meet you in your home, out in the community and / or speak to you over the phone to create a support plan to suit you. They will be there every step of the way to help you reach your goals.

We can provide a comprehensive package of emotional and practical support for up to 16 weeks in a person’s home, out in the community or remotely by phone to help improve a person’s quality of life.
One of our experienced and friendly workers will help create a support plan designed to suit the individual to help reach their goals, whether they are experiencing feelings of social isolation, mental ill-health, substance misuse, or other life challenges.
