This webinar will explore the role of social prescribing at various stages of life, presenting a selection of speakers focusing on the areas of childhood, working age and older people, as well as an intergenerational example. Taking a life course approach means considering the key life stages, transitions and settings where there are significant opportunities to promote or improve health and wellbeing.
