Lorn and Oban Healthy Options has been awarded £40,000 per annum for the next three years from the Big Lottery Fund to deliver its Social Prescribing Project. Partners from across
Scotland and Northern Ireland will be brought together, in this, the largest and first cross-country project of its kind.
Social prescribing links primary medical care to community- based resources and local support services, and is backed by a social model for health.
