New National Care Service

Applications are now open for individuals and organisations to join co-design panels and play a part in designing the new National Care Service (NCS).

The new NCS will set national standards and guidance to support the local design and delivery of community healthcare and social work services, in a way which best meets the needs of those who use them. Anyone over the age of 18 living in Scotland can apply to join the Lived Experience Experts Panel (LEEP) to take part. Stakeholder organisations can also add their voices by applying to join the Stakeholder Register.

More information can be found: Get involved in designing the National Care Service (NCS) – gov.scot (www.gov.scot)
