Tackling Poverty and Inequalities

Today we're looking at Improving Access to Health and Social Care as part of #CTWeek24, celebrating community transport across the UK with @CTAUK1 Volunteer drivers play a vital role in supporting community transport, helping vulnerable people to access health and social care.

Such a great turnout to the Lived Experience Conference today in Peterhead. Talking about how to be ethical, resourced, respectful when setting up lived experience panels. Great workshops sharing our learning and gathering more. @Aberdeenshire @TPIashire #CPW24
