Hi Gemmers We had a regional network meeting of the North West social prescribing group and a presentation form the Museums of Homelessness as a result one of the attendees expressed a strong interest in building links with museums in and around Merseyside and Cheshire. If your museum is interested in exploring what this might look like please see the details below: In summary: * Wellbeing Enterprises <http://www.wellbeingenterprises.org.uk/about/> (WE) run a comprehensive social prescribing service for cancer patients and their carers in Liverpool. Our wellbeing cancer service has been running for more than 12 months and is funding by Macmillan Cancer Support in partnership with Liverpool CCG. * The programme includes a range of educational and social inclusion opportunities and within these courses we offer excursions to local assets and we'd been keen to broker relationships with arts, cultural, museums in a collaborative fashion rather than simply bring patients along. * We'd simply like to work more closely with said organisations in the best interests of cancer patients and explore the 'art of the possible' in relation to working with this group of patients and more broadly in relation to our shared interests in wellbeing. Lynn and Carolyn would be keen to foster links and jointly promote any partnership working .
