Connect North?
Connect North is our social prescribing service for adults (18+) living in the Northern Health & Social Care Trust area. Connect North aims to help people find the right social, emotional and practical support close to home, improving wellbeing and reducing isolation.
How Connect North can support you:
A Directory of Local Support Services: https://www.connectnorth.co.uk/
Our online directory provides the first port of call to easily search hundreds of local organisations, activities and services by postcode or type of support.
Drop-In Sessions
Our Link Workers run drop-in sessions in local libraries offering a friendly, informal opportunity for guidance on local groups, events and services without the need for a referral or appointment.
For your nearest Drop-in:
Link Worker Support
Those who need more personalised support, can be referred to a Connect North Link Worker through our online portal. Link Workers spend time getting to know what matters to each person, offering compassionate support, practical advice and help connecting to meaningful local activities and supports.
How you can support others:
Connect North also invites you to become a Community Connector, to help others find local support using the Directory. No training is required.
You can become a Community Connector in just a few minutes:
