FREE EVENT – open to all with an interest in Health, Housing and Social Care – draft programme attached

This event launches a Scotland-wide public engagement programme that aims to build long term consensus about how best we can support older people with care needs.

The Scottish Government, COSLA and NHS Scotland have been working in close partnership to develop a range of “emerging proposals” to help deliver continuously improving care for older people in the face of the challenges posed by ever-growing numbers of older people and the current financial climate. This event now brings these proposals into the spotlight, inviting wider stakeholder scrutiny as they are developed into responses to these challenges.

Speakers include:

  • Shona Robison MSP, Minister for Public Health & Sport
  • Councillor Ronnie McColl, COSLA
  • Frank Clark, Convener, Care Commission
  • Professor David Bell, University of Stirling
  • Tim Davison, Chief Executive NHS Lanarkshire and Chair, Ministerial ‘Delivery Group’
  • David Manion, Chief Executive, Age Concern Help the Aged Scotland
  • Annie Gunner Logan, Director, Community Care Providers Scotland
