SUMMARY:Member meet up- Broader Reach and Stronger Voice
DESCRIPTION:In November 2022\, VHS published Broader Reach and Stronger Voice: Reflecting on the inclusivity of the COVID-19 vaccine programme and collaboration with the third sector. This was a qualitative study asking our member organisations and wider network about the inclusivity of the COVID-19 vaccine programme and collaboration with the third sector. \nAt our event on the 26th of January\, we will be bringing VHS members and partners together to discuss the potential and opportunities in partnership working for health. \nBook your place here.\nThe clear overwhelming message from the third sector is that we want to be more involved in future public health interventions to reduce inequalities. The COVID-19 vaccine programme has provided us with multiple positive examples of how partnership working can benefit communities and individuals. \nThird sector and voluntary organisations are trusted by the communities we serve and are therefore well placed to support future public health interventions. The sector is already working with communities who are often underserved and falling through the cracks of services. Our research underlines the value of partnering with representatives from communities and that public health input doesn’t always need to take place on NHS ground. \nAt this event we will discuss how do we enable partnerships to be nurtured and sustained to make sure that those often-underserved groups are supported by trusted community voices to access healthcare? \nHow do we ensure that the third sector is valued as a trusted partner in future interventions to reduce inequalities? \nWe will hear from: \n\nKimberley Somerside\, Policy and Engagement Lead at Voluntary Health Scotland\nDr Lewis Clarke\, Research and Policy Officer\, HIV Scotland\n\nBook your place here. \n  \nPlease contact Lauren Blair if you have any questions.

SUMMARY:Human Rights Bill- Kitchen Table Discussion
DESCRIPTION:VHS are hosting a Kitchen Table discussion\, in person\, at our office in Edinburgh\, on the morning of Tuesday 5th September\, to discuss the Scottish Government Human Rights Bill Consultation. We have invited selected members\, challengers and critical friends to join us at the Kitchen Table. Please contact Lauren Blair if you would like to express and interest in attending. \nThe Scottish Government has launched the consultation gathering views to help inform the  Human Rights Bill. The Bill will incorporate a range of economic\, social and cultural rights into Scots law for the first time. One of the rights listed is ‘The right to the highest attainable standard of physical and mental health”\, this will be the primary focus of our consultation response. However\, we are also interested in hearing our members’ views on incorporating the convention on the elimination of racial discrimination\, the elimination of discrimination against women and the convention on the rights of persons with disabilities\, not to mention plans to recognise the right to a healthy environment. So many of our rights are intertwined and impact our health and wellbeing\, we want to hear what they mean to our members and their work. \nWe are holding a Kitchen Table discussion to help us cast a critical eye over our consultation response focusing on health\, and to benefit from the perspectives\, expertise and experience of people with professional or personal knowledge of the issues. The main body of the meeting will be concentrating on the consultation questions. We especially want to hear from any members who have imbedded a human rights based approach to their work supporting people’s health and wellbeing. \nListening to\, learning from and collaborating with our stakeholders is crucial to enable VHS to put forward important views on the right to health and the role of human rights in tackling health inequalities as part of our consultation response. \nPlease contact Lauren Blair with any further questions. \n  \n
