Public Policy
The Promise Scotland works to support and drive the meaningful change needed for Scotland to #KeepThePromise by 2030.
About us
In February 2020 the Independent Care Review called for a radical overhaul of Scotland’s ‘care system’ publishing for the first time, the human and economic cost of the current provision and its failures. Unprecedented in scope, methodology and model, the Care Review listened to more than 5,500 experiences. Over half of those were children and young people with experience of the ‘care system’, adults who have lived in care and their families. The rest came from the unpaid and paid workforce. The Promise is the body responsible for implementing this work and will oversee the delivery of change, as envisaged by the Care Review, and demanded by generations of voices of care experienced people and their families.

Work to #KeepThePromise is constantly evolving. The Promise Progress Framework brings together data from across multiple sources into one place, to tell a more contextual and expansive story of Scotland’s progress. Find out more about what this means for organisations here: https://ow.ly/IVY650UrX9y.
-
The Promise Progress Framework looks at aligning data under 10 key areas taken directly from the promise to set out the vision for where Scotland must be in 2030. This allows anyone working to #KeepThePromise to align their own reporting, measure change, and see where more progress is needed. Learn more about what this means for you and your organisation here: https://ow.ly/IVY650UrX9y.

The Promise Story of Progress seeks to address the disconnect between what matters to children, young people, and families and the recorded data, to tell a more rounded story of the progress being made towards keeping the promise. The Promise Progress Framework is the first step to doing this, by providing the structure and setting out clear visions, outcomes, and indicators. Learn more about how you are your organisation can be a part of the story here: https://ow.ly/IVY650UrX9y.
