11th July
Have you heard that Derby and Derbyshire ICB are using Joy and its "Marketplace Community Directory" to support social prescribing and promote community and voluntary sector services. See the attached PDF for an overview. The Marketplace Community Directory is accessible to all and free to use.
Anyone can add a service to the Joy marketplace, and we encourage you to do so via the following link. There is some clever AI that can regularly scan service provider websites to detect service changes to help ensure any listing remains up to date.
I am reaching out to you to promote the opportunity to build out your service on the Joy Marketplace, and Joy would like to support you in adding a referral pathway to your service on the platform.
Top reasons to promote your service on Joy Marketplace:
- It’s free! There is no cost to you for using the Joy Marketplace to promote your service to local communities and professionals like GPs and Social Prescribing Link Workers
- You can ensure quick and easy referrals reach you, always containing the information you need to assess the referral and support the client
- You get access to some powerful data to support funding bids and business cases
Joy is holding two FREE short "Intro to Joy Marketplace" sessions on the below dates and would love for you to attend to find out more. If you would like to attend, please email support@joyapp.com with the date of the session you would like to attend, and we will add you to the invite.
