Welcome to the Scottish Health Campaigns Network

The Scottish Health Campaigns Network (SHCN) has been set up to support the work of numerous campaign groups throughout Scotland which are fighting for the retention of Hospital services and other health related issues considered vital to the welfare of those in both rural and urban areas.

The SHCN will assist the individual groups where issues requiring national action are needed and they will provide a means of coordination and cooperation where this is requested by the individual groups.
