PLACES for Belonging

For: Local authority integration teams, Refugee & migration partnerships & VCSE organisations

You are working with newly arrived and underserved communities who need ways into local life that aren't clinical, aren't bureaucratic, and don't require them to already know the system. Most social prescribing tools assume people are already connected.

PLACES maps and connects people to nature-based activities in their area, built around trust and community connection rather than referral forms. It's led by consent, shaped with the communities using it, and designed to work for people starting from scratch, not people already in the system. A working, geo-located directory of green social prescribing activities in your area, built with local delivery partners, ready to use with the groups you're already working with.
