What can you do next?

If you thought the idea of social prescribing sounded interesting or possibly helpful to someone you care about, do download the app and search for services that may be near you or their location.

If you would like to support the app and it doesn’t look like your GP surgery has signed up to the app – you can find a template below to send to your local GP, your local authority, University, School or Care Provider. All of these organisations will be able to find out more about the incredible features of the App from Andrew and his team.

If you are an organisation that thinks you might want to be listed on the App, to be added go to the Help at Hand website and see the procedure you need to follow.  If you can’t find the information you require – send an email to help@hand.community

Dear [Doctor’s Name/Practice Manager],

I hope this email finds you well. My name is [Your Name] and I am a resident of [Your Local Area], as well as an avid supporter of innovative healthcare solutions that benefit our community.

I am writing to express my enthusiasm for ‘The Help at Hand Community App’, a groundbreaking platform developed by Andrew Kellard, which aims to connect individuals with non-medical support services in our community through the concept of social prescribing. As someone deeply invested in the well-being of our local community, I believe that the inclusion of [Your Local Doctor’s Surgery] in this app could greatly benefit our residents by providing them with access to a wider range of support services and resources.

I would like to ask you to look at the app and then request a meeting with a ‘Help at Hand Community App’ representative to discuss the possibility of adding your practice to the ‘Help at Hand’ app. This meeting would provide an opportunity to learn more about the app, its benefits, and how [Your Local Doctor’s Surgery] can become involved.

It would be brilliant to have ‘The Help at Hand Community App’ available to myself, my friends, and other members of our local area.

Thank you for considering this request. I look forward to hearing from you soon and hopefully collaborating to improve healthcare access and support services in our community.

Warm regards,
