The programme aims to increase the third sector’s capacity to contribute to health and social care integration.

Our programme supports the third sector to influence the direction of health and social care integration in Scotland by:

  • promoting and championing the role of the third sector
  • gathering intelligence about best practice and share learning about what is working well.
  • ensuring the voice of lived experience influences the design and delivery of integrated services.

We facilitate the IJB Lived Experience Representatives Network, the Community of Practice – Lived Experience and Knowledge Hub.

Some recent highlights of the Integration Support team’s activities include a review of Integration Authority strategic priorities and Connected Communities case studies series, which highlights how organisations are supporting health and social care integration in their communities across Scotland.

Our team connects and supports stakeholders in health and social care to drive effective, integrated, person-centred approaches in policy and service design and provision. As part of our integration work, the ALLIANCE maintains strong connections with Health and Social Care Partnerships (HSCPs) across Scotland. Find out more about our integration support offer for HSCPs.
