Our Customers – VCSE

Increase awareness, reach, uptake and impact of community health and wellbeing services

With the rapid growth, interest and variety of social prescribing health care models, Elemental’s digital social prescribing platform enables Commissioners, GPs and other Allied Health Professionals, Social Prescribing Link Workers and other Social Care Professionals to scale and measure health and wellbeing within the communities most in need.

Who's it for?

Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise Organisations

At Elemental, we know that increasing access to services, reaching those who need the most support, empowering people and demonstrating impact are all important factors to securing funding and developing a sustainable growth strategy.

We also know that stakeholder engagement, stronger multi-sector partnership working and the ability to identify gaps in service provision is critical to the success of your organisation.

Elemental’s award-winning platform is currently enabling VCSE organisations across the UK and Ireland to:

Receive referrals for their programmes and services in a safe and secure way
Increase awareness of the services they offer
Reach more people, especially those who are traditionally hardly reached
Collect data on the effectiveness and demand for services that can be used in reporting and further funding applications proving how successful the programme has been
Strengthen relationships and partnerships with other organisations, agencies, sectors
Reduce time spent on administration duties therefore free much much-needed resources for their staff
Become more digitally mature as an organisation

Testimonials

Why our customers in the VCSE sector love Elemental!

Elemental has provided us with a platform to present our findings with authority, encourage more partners to collaborate with us, allowed us as an organisation with a small number of staff to help provide a service to a large number of people and made it so easy for GPs and Clinicians to buy in to making a social prescription at a single click of a finger in consultation times. “We have had numerous testimonials from across the board of how valuable accessing a social prescription has proved to be in helping people in their lives whether it be someone’s HBA1C level dropping after taking part in a low carb programme to someone being ready to return to work after getting some voluntary experience to someone just feeling part of the community again

We have adapted the SPRING model and have launched a new “Connect Well” service to provide support to our clients during lock-down. We have also introduced additional training and mental health support for our staff to ensure that they too, feel supported and empowered to work throughout Covid-19. Elemental has been an integral part of our reporting system in SPRING Social Prescribing. The platform will help us get a specific picture of the needs and issues arising during lockdown, which give us an invaluable insight into the needs of our community and also a projection on the future demands on services

It is going to be great to have a platform that allows us to share relevant information appropriately, whilst minimising the risk of data breaches. We are excited to see how Elemental will change our organisation as we grow

Referrals at Action Together have increased from around 100 a month, to 1000 in less than 2 months. At our busiest we received 136 referrals in a single day. The team have worked closely with partners to help meet the demand and they enlisted the help of staff from Tameside’s health improvement service to work as part of our team. Again we were able to give them temporary access to Elemental so that after a brief induction we could work remotely and as part of the Action Together team.
