Partnership working in South Lanarkshire is being brought into sharp focus – with the launch of a brand new website.

South Lanarkshire Health and Social Care Partnership’s (SLHSCP) all new user-friendly platform – to be found at www.slhscp.org.uk – has been set up to provide a wealth of information, news and essential links.

SLHSCP’s Director of Health and Social Care, Val de Souza, explained that the online presence marks a key milestone.

“The public-facing website has been developed, first and foremost, as a tool and resource to facilitate our vision: working together to improve health and wellbeing in the community – with the community.

“A lot of the vibrant content already on the website, which includes various films, exemplifies how we are supporting people across South Lanarkshire – and crucially how they are being empowered and supported to make a real difference to their own lives.”

The pages provide detail, for example, on the partnership’s Building and Celebrating Communities programme, which has been established to explore how SLHSCP can generate more space for communities to create the things that matter to them – and how the partnership can support these activities.

There’s information on how to get involved in shaping local health and social care service, via South Lanarkshire Health and Social Care Forum as well as detail on the services run by the partnership.

As well as links to partner organisations, and how to get in touch, the website provides all relevant papers and documents relating to the Integration Joint Board.
