The BSP initiative aims to meet key principles in order that the scheme is:
- Safe
- Ethical
- Effective (evidence-based)
- Equitable (free or low cost)
- Person Centred
Registered charities, voluntary groups and organisations are expected to share evidence of a basic set of standards so that our Link Workers can formally socially prescribe people to organisations and groups that can support health and wellbeing.
Don’t worry if you haven’t got everything we’re looking for in place. Guernsey Community Foundation can support you with practical advice and support you may need. Get in touch with them on 01481 259523.
Signing up to the BSP Quality Assurance scheme can help to support relationships between Third Sector organisations and voluntary groups and other partners such as the community, health professionals and funding bodies.
If you would like to sign up as Bailiwick Social Prescribing partner please get in touch.
