Children's Health Scotland Supporting the health/wellbeing of children & young people & their right to the best possible health.

The health and wellbeing of children and young people lies at the heart of the work of Children’s Health Scotland, and we believe that every child has the right to the best possible health. We seek to empower children and young people with knowledge and life-long skills that can help influence their health and wellbeing whilst shaping their future life chances. We’re the only charity dedicated to informing, promoting, and campaigning on behalf of the needs and rights of all children and young people with health conditions. We work directly with children and young people and those who love and care for them through our three main services: ‘Children and Young People Health and Wellbeing Services, ‘Care Experience Services for Children and Young People’, and ‘Children and Young People Health Rights Services’.
