Across Scotland, children and young people are discovering their health rights — and this season’s magazine from Children’s Health Scotland is a celebration of what happens when those rights are recognised, respected, and realised.

The Autumn/Winter 2025 edition is designed for families, carers, professionals, and supporters who believe that every child deserves the best possible health. It’s packed with real stories, joyful events, and practical resources that show how rights-based, trauma-informed care is transforming lives — from castles and science centres to hospitals, schools, and community hubs.
