A National Care Service for Scotland – Third Sector East Lothian Consultation Survey

This survey is designed to gather the views of third sector organisations across East Lothian to help inform a response to the national consultation on the establishment of a National Care Service for Scotland (NCS).

The national consultation is about how social care is delivered in Scotland. It proposes that a National Care Service be established, which will be accountable to Scottish Ministers.

Social Care is important. This has been made even clearer in the pandemic. Social Care is support for disabled people, those with mental health conditions, older people, people with or recovering from addictions, homeless people, children and families who need support, or children who are unable to live with their own families. It also includes support for unpaid carers.

Third sector organisations have a critical role to play in providing social care across our county. It is important that the third sector has an opportunity to share their views on the future of social care.

You do not need to answer all the questions, but any information you do provide will help shape a local third sector response to the national consultation.
