Edinburgh Community Health Forum
Reducing health inequalities and improving long-term health outcomes for people across Edinburgh
ECHF is a leading voice in driving the health inequality agenda in Edinburgh.
We provide leaders of local community health organisations with the opportunity to connect, learn together and to share best practice and resources. We fundamentally believe that we are stronger together.

Edinburgh Community Health Forum is turning 30 Years Old!
Established on the 13th of May 1996 ECHF has been working with our members to reduce health inequalities and improve health outcomes for 30 years.
We’re very proud of this achievement and are currently planning a celebration to show off the work we and our members have been doing.
We will have more information on this shortly, so watch this space.
what our members are up to today
Our impact
The Forum has created the opportunity to develop partnerships with other organisation or in areas where didnt happen previously
ECHF is a great support for networking and learning!
We are always stronger together - ECHF provides joint information, voice and presence for community health initiatives in the City. PCHP very much values the forum and its work on behalf of our organsiation and others
I feel the ECHF is the most beneficial meeting that I attend thoughout the year.
The ECHF is invaluable it is as it enables services capacity and effectiveness to deal with important pertinent issues without taking away from service delivery. IT makes projects more efficient.
I attend a lot of different forums and networks due to the cross over of our work; yet I believe the ECHF offers something different and valuable
The relevance of the topics the forum work on have made me engage with staff differently, ask different questions of my organisation, and supported me to feel more confident and included within the forum itself and at work.
I feel more informed and supported as a result of the ECHF
I always try to prioritise coming to forum meetings as it is a helpful place to come - to get support, information and to network. It's unique and I appreciate it.
You are doing a really great job keeping us all informed and linked in. Hugely helpful to know the health inequalities agenda is represented, as individual projects simply cannot make it to all the meetings that take place.
I think the network and help provided is invaluable - particularly for a small organisation such as ours
I think the ECHF gives you confidence to share issues with other third sector partners openly.
The training, support and information provided by the Forum continues to evolve and improve. It manages to be relevant, well tailored to its audiences and timely
The support and information that has been provided over the last 6 months in relation to the HSC Review of Grants has been excellent and is exactly what the forum is all about
The ECHF does a great job - excellent training programme, well run meetings and an obvious commitment to supporting member organisations
