Falkirk HSCP Strategic Plan
A new strategic vision for Falkirk’s health and social care services
Falkirk Health and Social Care Partnership’s Integration Joint Board is developing its next strategic plan, which will set the future direction for social work services and community adult health and social care services.
As one of 31 integration bodies in Scotland, the Board is responsible for making sure health and social care support is linked together.
The Partnership’s current plan, Creating a Healthier Falkirk, is to be replaced with a new strategy later this year.

Phase 1 (Spring 2026):
We’ll start the conversation and gather insight from the info we already have.
- We’ll start with a survey, open until 22 March. This will inform public engagement activities and the draft plan.
- We will review existing evidence, feedback and national policy to identify what our plan must include.
- We will publish a new Joint Strategic Needs Assessment. This document gathers data and facts about our local population and what their health and wellbeing needs are. We are required by law to produce this and use it to inform our strategic plan.
- We’ll begin planning a range of engagement opportunities with communities and partners, to be held throughout summer.
