New joint briefing available - ‘Tackling Health Inequalities in Scotland'
CHEX, Voluntary Health Scotland, Community Food and Health Scotland and UK Public Health have joined to produce the briefing ‘Tackling Health Inequalities in Scotland: working with communities – a partnership of Scottish Health Intermediary Bodies’ which highlights our collaborative work, together with our distinctive role and remits and the activities of our respective constituents.
The partnership working between our four organisations reflects the added value in health improvement and tackling health inequalities, together with effective networking and presentation of joint messages. But, crucially for community and voluntary health organisations, policy makers and practitioners it also highlights the differences in our approaches, aims and services.
This briefing is intended to help potential users and new partners to have an informed understanding of what we do, what we offer and with whom. It aims to help with accurate signposting and relevant accessing of support and information. It will hopefully contribute to strengthening the infrastructure of support and movements for change in health improvement and tackling health inequalities. The Briefing can be downloaded here.
