Here at Elemental, we pride ourselves in the fact that we’ve got first hand experience in community development and we understand the challenges that communities face in reducing health inequalities. It’s all about understanding what’s already there, what’s working well and involving the local community in designing and delivering an approach that matters to them.
We offer a meaningful partnership that is inclusive of all the community stakeholders involved in health and wellness, supporting you to embed the foundations of a shared vision and a sustainable approach to stronger and more resilient communities.
We’ll support you every step of the way, from engaging all stakeholders, to rolling out and implementing social prescribing in your communities, embracing digital to report on impacts and identify gaps and trends.
We were selected to help the Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, develop his vision for social prescribing in London.
