Scottish Care

Social care that works for Scotland

Help us change the social care landscape.

Scottish Care is a membership organisation representing the independent social care sector in Scotland. We work with members and stakeholders in social care to create conditions for sustainable human-rights-based care and support. As a charity, we need you to help us drive change by donating. When you support Scottish Care, you are helping to shape the environment in which care services can deliver and develop the high-quality care that people and communities deserve.
