About Brunswick Healthy Living Centre

Brunswick Healthy Living Centre (BHLC) is a registered charity and Company Limited by Guarantee, which owns and operates from Brunswick Hub community centre in Leamington Spa, Warwickshire.

The charity delivers a wide range of services and activities for the local community from the Hub. These include employment support, health and wellbeing activities, access to computer a community café and a safe place to meet and socialise.

The Role

The purpose of the role is to source and receive patient referrals from participating GP surgeries, other primary care health professionals and partners. Provide a holistic assessment of need with individuals referred, creating a “social prescription” designed to address their needs, improve their health and wellbeing and achieve positive outcomes.  The organisational outcome is to reduce clinical /medical interventions over time and promote independence of those referred.

The role will work closely with the partners in South Leamington Social Prescribing Alliance.

The Alliance enables clinical professionals to prescribe another avenue of support for their patients instead of, or in addition to, conventional medication.

The post holder will be able to efficiently organise and manage their client’s case from referral and initial assessment, through to outcome.
