DHI are thrilled to announce that we have been shortlisted for a Bath Life Award in the Health category.
We were nominated for the award for our social prescribing service, MyScript. Social prescribing helps people to overcome non medical causes of medical issues, like debt, poor housing, loneliness and anything else which a doctor can't fix but which might cause someone to go to see their doctor.
This service is run on a small budget and heavily relies on a team of dedicated volunteers, but the estimated savings for the NHS are enormous.
We're so proud of all our staff and volunteers who make MyScript such a success and who help turn around so many lives.
The winners will be announced on 23 February.
