Citizens Advice Dunstable and District
Alongside our own Social Prescribers we also partner with Citizens Advice Dunstable and District who provide a social prescribing service for our patients. They offer a range of support; connecting with the more vulnerable members of society providing the help they truly need, be it advice or help with socialising.
They arrange a monthly coffee morning, so why not pop in for a chat and a cuppa. Click on the link below to find out the dates of their next meet-ups. The coffee mornings have helped some of our patients to build confidence, and find new friends.
