We Believe That Old People Are Cool
The Social Prescription Manifesto
We believe…
In a world where people of all ages are respected and valued
That our health and wellbeing is determined not just by our biology but perhaps more importantly by our environmental and social surroundings
Offering older adults more than just expensive medicine is therefore key to improving their health and wellbeing
A social prescription should be available based on a person’s life history, individual preferences, and current abilities
That prescribing time in nature, music, meditation, healthy nutrition, painting, and other engaging activities brings meaning, purpose, and agency into the lives of elders
This can happen when we empower activity professionals with an interdisciplinary team, technology that increases efficiency and the creation of a Chief Engagement Officer (CEO)
Meaning is Medicine
