A collection of stories sharing different perspectives on the Community Links Worker Programme.

The ALLIANCE is delighted to release the fourth volume of the Humans of Scotland story series, shining a light on The Links Worker Programme (LWP). The programme has been a journey of connection, compassion and transformation and has a profound impact on individuals and communities across Glasgow. 

This publication brings together a collection of stories reflecting the diverse experiences of those who have sought support from their local Community Link Worker (CLW), the GPs based in the practices and the Link Workers. They offer a rich tapestry of perspectives, shedding light on the realities, challenges and triumphs encountered along the way. Through these narratives, we are invited to explore themes of resilience, belonging, mental health, social isolation, empowerment and community. They are honest, moving and deeply human. 

We hope this collection serves not only as a testament to the lives touched by the programme but also as a starting point for reflection and dialogue. Within these pages are stories of love, loss, hope, and healing – universal experiences that remind us of the power of connection and the importance of community.
