Public Health Scotland is Scotland’s lead national agency for improving and protecting the health and wellbeing of all of Scotland’s people. Their vision is for a Scotland where everybody thrives.
Focusing on prevention and early intervention, they aim to increase healthy life expectancy and reduce premature mortality by responding to the wider determinants that impact on people’s health and wellbeing. To do this, they use data, intelligence and a place-based approach to lead and deliver Scotland’s public health priorities.
