Social prescribing is the bridge between the community and the health and social care sectors. Jennifer Neff, CEO and Co-Founder of Elemental reveals why social prescribing is everyone’s responsibility and the positive impacts it can have on people, communities and healthcare.
We share a vision with NHS England who has expectations that PCNs will bring care closer to the community. In line with the key objective of PCNs to bring care closer to the community and connect local primary care teams, we need to focus on promoting our experience and evidence of:
Enhancing services around local communities
Rebuilding and reconnecting primary healthcare teams
Empowering GPs and other primary care practitioners to deliver an effective and sustainable model of care for their patients and communities
Enable PCNs to report on the effectiveness and impact of their SP programmes

Our award-winning social prescribing software is revolutionising the way students in Higher Education access wellbeing support by delivering a sustainable and replicable approach to tackling wellbeing challenges grounded in social prescribing.
Social prescribing is an important approach to self-management of mental
health. The model of care is based on supporting people within our
communities to access non-medical and non-clinical sources of support
that can help combat health inequalities, mental health, and wellbeing
concerns. Focusing on mental health, there is a wide variety of social
prescribing models that can be used to target rural and urban community
populations, cohort groups, and vulnerable individuals with different
intended outcomes.
Social prescribing is a model that enables health and social care professionals to refer people to a range of non-medical services within their community to improve social, mental, physical health and wellbeing. Recognising that people’s health and wellbeing is determined by a range of social, economic, and environmental factors, social prescribing takes a
holistic approach that empowers people to take control of their own health and to identify ways to improve how they are feeling with the practical and emotional support of a social prescribing link worker.
Elemental is an award-winning social prescribing software company with the purpose of empowering and enabling individuals, families, and their carers to better connect into community-based programmes, services, and activities that make a positive impact on their lives. Elemental helps localities and regions to establish, scale, and better measure the effectiveness of the social prescribing model of care.
Using Elemental areas can report on many different aspects of their project such as number of referrals received by each project, the source of where these referrals have come from, data around the reasons for referral, percentage uptake of social prescriptions, data around the types of activities prescribed and health and wellbeing impact data.

Someone’s health and wellbeing can be affected by where they live, what they do for a living, their income or their early childhood background experiences. This in turn leads to some stark, and often avoidable health differences.
We founded Elemental to play an active part in halting health inequalities through the social prescribing movement. Our technology helps communities to be better connected, build resilience and bring real precision to the measurement of the impact of community investment.
We work with organisations that want to continue to invest in their communities but want to be much better at measuring impact and outcomes.
We believe this is a powerful route out of health inequality.
