The trial, in Derbyshire, will see prescribing services offer patients ideas such as listening to birdsong.The project is being led by the RSPB and the Peak District National Park Authority.They will work with two social prescribing services in the High Peak, which receive referrals from 13 different GP practices in the area, community mental health teams, adult social care and the Live Life Better Derbyshire scheme, as well as self-referrals.
They said the prescriptions were based on accessible, self-led activities that people could do from home, on their own or with others. Dr Miller said: "Making sure we're taking care of our health and wellbeing is incredibly important, particularly in January when life can be a real struggle; the days are short and money can be tight.
