'Feedback to Feed On': Report on four CHEX MtSC regional networking events now available
Healthy Communities: Meeting the Shared Challenge is a national support programme which aims to promote and develop a community-led approach to health improvement. The programme supports local partnerships to strengthen the ways in which community-led health improvement is understood, planned for and supported as part of their overall approach to improving health and wellbeing.
Meeting the Shared Challenge is delivered by the Scottish Community Development Centre (SCDC) and CHEX, on behalf of NHS Health Scotland and the Scottish Government.
During late summer and autumn 2009, CHEX organised four regional networking events aimed at sharing lessons so far on the engagement of community and voluntary sector organisations with the programme.
The events were aimed at community and voluntary sector organisations and their statutory partners to build on their involvement in the programme and provide an opportunity to share learning from across the country on:
- raising awareness of community-led health
- evidencing community-led health through case studies
- taking community-led health forward into local health improvement planning structures
- strengthening partnership support for community-led health
The events attracted more than 90 participants from across Scotland.
