Climate-smart healthcare: The opportunity of Global Citizenship in NHS Scotland

As a worker within NHS Scotland, there are many opportunities not only to impact directly on the health of the population here in Scotland, but also indirectly on global health, through consideration of the potential impact that daily choices can have on people with low or limited access to resources.  The aim of these resources is to support NHS staff to make more sustainable choices in the workplace and understand how these changes can lead to wider global health benefits. Join us for the launch of Global Citizenship resources on Friday 12th November at 1-2pm to find out how you can get involved – register here now.
