Abstract
Background
A North Wales housing association offer a social prescription (SP) service within an innovative health and well-being Hub, currently being planned in the Nantlle Valley, Northwest Wales. In line with the requirement of Welsh Government policy, Grŵp Cynefin sought to engage the community in the development of the SP intervention through a co-design and co-production approach.
Method
Drawing from the principles of citizen assembly deliberations and Future Design four focus groups (n = 16) were conducted to develop sustainable strategies, a novel approach was applied to the focus groups. The “Today Groups” deliberated on the well-being of the community today, and the “Legacy Groups” deliberated on the well-being of future generations in developing SP interventions and the well-being Hub as a whole.
