Abstract: First paragraph: Husk et al., stated ‘social prescribing is the topic of the moment’ (p. 6 [1]) in 2019, and this remains the case. Globally, societies are struggling to find solutions to growing health inequalities and the impact of social determinants on creating (ill) health are increasingly recognised. Social prescribing is regarded as a way of mitigating health inequalities through better support of people in deprived areas [2] and has become more important post-COVID19 [3].
