One of the key messages in our new briefing is to recognise the value of community-led approaches and resource them effectively. A relatively small investment from overall health spend would make a huge difference to the community sector's preventative impact.

No one wants to live in a Scotland where a 1/4 of kids grow up in poverty and where the services we all rely on are pushed to the brink.

It’s time for our political leaders to work together to boost investment at #ScotBudget & beyond.

The Scottish Government must meet Scotland’s poverty targets by 2030 but substantial action and real investment is urgently needed to realise this promise to #EndChildPoverty.

During the pandemic, we saw the crucial contribution community organisations made in supporting the most vulnerable, and how locally-made decisions were central to the emergency response.

It is vital that communities have their say.
