Children's Health Scotland

We believe every child has the right to the best possible health. As a leading children’s health charity in Scotland, we work in partnership with children and young people to inform, promote and defend their healthcare rights and needs. Our work is child-led, trauma-informed and rooted in the UNCRC. We provide health-related play, wellbeing programmes, training and expert support that help children and young people – particularly those with health conditions, care experience or facing additional challenges – to understand their rights, build resilience and improve their life experiences. We work collaboratively with families, carers, professionals and national partners to influence and shape the services and systems that support them, reduce inequalities and help create more responsive, child-centred healthcare across Scotland.
