Jackie Southam

At 60 I am privilege to lead a team of Social Prescribing Health Coaches and Care Coordinators for our Primary Care Network. My career began in the financial industry but it soon became apparent that my strength lay in helping others to help themselves and over the years I have evolved from being a counsellor and therapist, to being a Health Trainer and now Social Prescriber. My role involves helping people to engage with their GP surgery where necessary and encouraging self-help wherever possible.
