JOY Marketplace is a Directory of Service of local and national non-clinical services 

Introducing: Joy Marketplace – a helpful website where you can find information about non-clinical services and support available locally and nationally. This includes things like community groups, mental health support, physical activity programmes, and more. 

This guide will walk you through how to use, update, and make the most of the website. 

A beginner’s guide to using the Joy Marketplace 

The Joy Marketplace is designed to help people find the right support for their needs. It’s especially useful for professionals working in social prescribing and voluntary organisations who want to refer or signpost individuals to trusted services. 

But it’s more than just a directory – it also allows health and care professionals to make referrals and track them, helping to see what impact those services have had on the people they support. 

How Joy works with other local platforms 

The Joy Marketplace works alongside the How Are You (H.A.Y.) websites. Both platforms list local organisations that provide support across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough, making it easier for people to find the help they need when they need it.
