Community Covid-19 resource updated around Test and Protect and restarting services

Supporting Communities Safely has been updated to reflect the latest changes to Scotland's Covid-19 response.

This free, online resource, developed by SCDC and Public Health Scotland, features a range of practical information and advice, with two new sections added.

The Test and Protect page includes details of the Scotland's contact tracing program, while the restarting services section provides a series of questions around how community groups could think about re-opening safely at an appropriate stage in Scotland's recovery. 

In towns and villages across Scotland, community organisations and volunteers are fighting Covid-19 and this resource is designed to help them do this as safely as possible.

The resource also includes updated information around:

  • How to safely promote an organisation’s services

  • Keeping volunteers safe and fit to provide services

  • How to get help with complex care needs

  • Safely collecting and delivering items

  • How to cook and transport hot meals
