Prescription Art Test Valley is a local social prescribing project focusing on building confidence, friendships and providing an outlet for previously unexplored creative instincts.

 

It was developed and delivered by a volunteer team and commenced in January 2017 with a pilot  art class in Romsey and now continues with four six week sessions per year, plus a thriving follow on class for participants who have completed the initial six week course.  Classes are held at the Dr Peter Centre in Romsey.

 

Patients with mild depression, anxiety, loneliness, bereavement are referred by their General Practitioner or other health practitioners for a course of  six weeks either singing or art as an alternative or adjunct to medication.

 

We were granted charitable status in April 2018.

 

Classes are free, the funds have been raised locally and by grants from various sources.
