Debs has the knowledge and lived experience expertise in social prescribing which needs to be heard. Read her story in the Metro:

Such a great thread about #SocialPrescribing Our #SDMNetwork WhatsApp has been talking about it today.
Debs has seen the benefits of it and now uses that experience to advocate for others.

Yes but I'm learning, slowly but I'm learning.

Today's been hard, in fact the last few weeks have. S.A.D? Perhaps. Not looking after myself? Probably. Feeling useless & ineffective? Definitely.
Whilst they say 'self praise is no praise' this reminded me why I do what I do.
Lots of love everyone ❤️

Great to be at this yest. Liveliest Zoom chat I’ve ever seen! And stellar speakers highlighting the importance of creative health. Clearly there’s lots still to do to align practice, evidence, policy& money but we really have come so far. Excited to see what the review reveals 👀
