Ahead of Health, Hope and Healing, the 2025 Scottish Community Link Worker Network Annual Conference, Voluntary Health Scotland asked Network members to complete a short survey.
Community Link Workers (CLWs) were asked for:
- Their top three reasons for referral.
- And the main challenge in their role.
158 members of the Scottish Community Link Worker Network responded to this survey, representing nearly 50% of the total membership, an increase on 27% who responded last year.
The responses to these questions have been summarised below and will be shared with attendees in advance of the conference on 7 May. Discussion of the results will also help to inform the morning’s community link worker and GP panel discussion.
For more information, please contact Roisin Hurst who is the Project Manager for the Scottish Community Link Worker Network.
