Non-Communicable Disease (NCD) Alliance Scotland

The Non-Communicable Disease Alliance Scotland is comprised of nine of Scotland’s leading health charities: British Heart Foundation Scotland, Alcohol Focus Scotland, ASH Scotland, Obesity Action Scotland, Scottish Health Action on Alcohol Problems (SHAAP), Asthma and Lung UK Scotland, Diabetes Scotland and Stroke Association

The Alliance has come together to campaign for action on the commercial determinants that drive the consumption of health harming products — alcohol, tobacco and unhealthy food and drinks. We aim to reduce the impact of health harming products through actions to tackle the availability, price and promotion and marketing of health harming products, as well as actions to support the delivery of support services around drinking, smoking cessation and weight management.
