Green Prescription (GRx) is a FREE programme to improve the health and wellbeing of adults and whānau through physical activity/nutrition support to help individuals make sustainable, healthy behaviour changes. Through education, removal of barriers, and development of personal skills GRx aims to enhance physical, mental, and social wellbeing.
How we support
We can provide support to individuals or to families, adapting based on need (which might be as little as a one-off contact), but could also include:
- Face-to-face consultations (in-homes, in the community or online) with a Programme Advisor, with regular follow-ups for up to 12-months
- Resources and advice around healthy eating, physical activity, and general wellbeing
- Motivation and goal-setting support
- Practical cooking and food workshops
- Physical activity tasters, and support to link into community events and physical activity programmes
If you’re just after direction, ideas, and inspiration, why not check out our Wellbeing Hub? This is a collection of resources, including physical activity and recipe directories.
