The Green Social Prescribing Toolkit, a detailed document created by NHS England and Natural England, is now live and on the NASP website.
The Green Social Prescribing Toolkit is designed to help communities, organisations and health professionals who are looking to set up green social prescribing programmes that connect with local health systems.

What is Green Social Prescribing?
Green social prescribing is the practice of supporting people to engage in nature-based interventions and activities to improve their mental and physical health. Social prescribing link workers (and other trusted professionals in allied roles) connect people to community groups and agencies for practical and emotional support, based on a ‘what matters to you’ conversation.
