What Can I Do?
Chest Heart & Stroke Scotland (CHSS) improves the quality of life for people
in Scotland affected by chest, heart and stroke illness, through medical
research, influencing public policy, advice and information, and
support in the community.
Volunteers are a vital part of CHSS. Without their dedicated support none of our work would be possible.
We offer a range of services throughout Scotland, including support for families and other carers. We fund all of this through our own efforts.
