VHS works to reduce health inequalities to enable the people of Scotland to live well.
We believe that health is more than the absence of illness, and together with our members and partners, we champion a prevention-first approach to healthcare.
VHS strives to provide the national voice for third sector health organisations in Scotland.
We work extensively with our members, third sector organisations, health boards, Scottish Government, Scottish Parliament, universities, research bodies, Royal Colleges of Health and with local partnerships.
See what we do below or explore by health themes.
