Wellbeing 4U is a social prescribing service that’s currently run in Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan in South Wales by the Thrive team at United Welsh. The service supports citizens to be responsible for their own health by placing them at the centre of their care, promoting independence and personal responsibility.
As well as offering one-to-one support and signposting, the Wellbeing 4U service also provides health programmes and courses through The Healthful Network.
Wellbeing 4U supports patients who are registered with 37 GP surgeries across Cardiff and Vale. Referrals come from GPs, practice staff, patients and other community organisations.
The most common referrals at Wellbeing 4U were for mental, social and physical wellbeing, harmful behaviours, immunisation, screening advice and frequent GP attenders.
Working in effective, mutually beneficial partnerships is at the heart of the Wellbeing 4U service and is detrimental to its success. The collaboration helped to enhance the patient experience, grow community assets and identify gaps in service provision, providing value for money.

“We decided to go with Elemental as a service provider because they provide an established platform with evidence of partnership working and supporting outcomes. The main reasons to utilise this platform is to aid our service in demonstrating outcomes from our signposting, assisting reporting and streamlining our referral pathway.’’ Emma South, Health and Wellbeing Lead, United Welsh
Evaluation is critical to service delivery at Wellbeing 4U which meant the team continuously improve patient journeys and effectively report on service outcomes.
Recognising the benefits of digital and how it can enhance service delivery and evaluation, Wellbeing 4U used Elemental’s Core social prescribing platform to streamline referrals, track their impact and aggregate outcome reports.
In addition to MI and MECC measuring tools, Wellbeing 4U use ONS questions for wellbeing comparison groups from local ONS survey findings and demographic surveys to measure positive change in wellbeing for patients and to identify provision gaps.
“We’re so proud to be working in partnership with United Welsh and the Wellbeing 4U team who are contributing massively to a healthier Wales. Their core values and passion for social prescribing and healthier communities is testament to their success and the impact the Wellbeing 4U service is making. We can’t wait to see what’s to come in the future and once again would like to congratulate the entire team on another fantastic year.” Jennifer Neff, Co-founder & Co- CEO Elemental Software
