What's the NHS doing about climate?
/The Scottish Government and NHS Assure have developed a draft Climate Emergency and Sustainability Strategy 2022 to 2026 for NHS Scotland. A consultation on the draft is open until the 10th March 2022.
The consultation paper is called ‘NHS Scotland climate emergency and sustainability strategy 2022 to 2026 and it covers a range of areas ranging from sustainable buildings and travel to ‘green prescribing’. There is a section on Sustainable Communities on p57 of the document.
CHEX is going to submit a response and would be happy to discuss this with anyone in our network who has views on the consultation or is thinking of submitting their own response.
To speak to us about CHEX’s response, contact Andrew Paterson by email, andrew@scdc.org.uk.
Read CHEX’s briefing, Where the Action Is, making links between community-led health and climate.
