Social prescribing & community connection
Find Community Groups Near You
The Healing Hubs is registered to provide services across England and Wales. While we continue to grow, we've gathered links to local community groups in every county so you can find connection close to home.
Connecting people to community, not just clinical care
Social prescribing is an approach that enables GPs, nurses, and other primary care professionals to refer people to a range of local, non-clinical services. Rather than treating loneliness and isolation with medication alone, social prescribing links people to community groups, activities, and befriending services that address the root causes of poor wellbeing. The Healing Hubs is a recognised social prescribing provider — our services can be accessed directly or through a referral from your GP or healthcare team.
GP & healthcare referrals
Ask your GP, nurse, or social worker to refer you directly to The Healing Hubs.
Self-referral welcome
You don't need a clinical referral — anyone can get in touch and access our services.
England & Wales wide
Our telephone befriending service covers all regions; in-person groups are in Hampshire.
