Our Partners - working collaboratively for community wellbeing
Listen Well Scotland is encouraged by the varied organisations which recognise the value and need of our unique prevention and early intervention services for wellbeing and are committed to working in partnership with us.
Since 1984, PCHP has worked with local people to improve their own health and wellbeing and create a happier, more resilient community.
The pandemic and current economic conditions have exacerbated health inequalities and impacted upon communities greatly.
PCHP believes the partnership with Listen Well Scotland will support their ongoing work with local people to develop and strengthen personal and community capacity and resilience.
PCHP will fully fund places for local residents and people who volunteer in North Edinburgh to undertake the Let’s Get Listening online training.
The Listen Well Scotland one-to-one Listening service, LT4U can be accessed through PCHP Community Link Workers based in local medical centres.

Carluke High School
Three LWS Registered Listeners provide Listening Time 4U weekly during term time for pupils. This service has been running successfully for over five years.
The LT4U service and Registered Listeners are highly valued by pupils and Pupil Support Staff.
LT4U offers early intervention and prevention in addressing mental wellbeing concerns.
Carluke HS is working with LWS to make our LT4U evaluations digital, so that LWS can share the impact of the service with funders and donors.
