Today is International Social Prescribing Day!

Social Prescribing, through civic engagement and volunteering, is a powerful tool for supporting mental health, well-being, and stronger communities. By participating in activities like community gardening and volunteering, individuals can enhance their recovery and overall quality of life.

MCVS is proud to be part of SPACE – Social Prescribing and Civic Engagement, an Erasmus+ funded project that facilitates social prescribing opportunities for vulnerable individuals across the EU. MCVS is collaborating with international organisations to promote Social Prescribing and its benefits, particularly for individuals recovering from cancer. Our goal is to establish Social Prescribing as an accessible and recognized support within the health and social sectors.
