Statement: Developing Plan 24-30 Route Maps

The Promise Scotland’s Head of Support, Alison Sutherland, is leading and coordinating the work around developing the Plan 24-30 route maps, one of the four focus areas in our new strategic work programme.

She said:

“Plan 24-30 route maps will set out the steps those responsible for leading and implementing change are taking towards keeping the promise.

“This involves shaping the process for how they will be developed, and who should be involved in developing them. The route maps are a crucial step toward fulfilling the promise, serving as a strategic guide to 2030: outlining key milestones, initiatives, and timelines.

The route maps will:

• Set out the timebound and specific actions the systems and services responsible for driving the necessary change are taking.
• Be codesigned plans developed in collaboration with those leading the work, promoting collective ownership and accountability.
• Surface the bridges and the barriers to progress, to understand where change must be accelerated.
• Be underpinned by what matters to children, families and care experienced adults rather than what matters to the system.

“Through collaboration and ongoing feedback, The Promise Scotland is refining each phase of route map development to ensure it aligns with what the Independent Care Review heard and enables Scotland to progress towards 2030.

“Not one organisation or part of the system is responsible for keeping the promise: collaboration and cross-sector working is central. Keep an eye out for updates on the process and priorities for route map development, and the important role you can play in ensuring Scotland keeps its promise.”
