Developing Route Maps
Part of: Supporting Plan 24-30
Plan 24-30’s route maps help organisations across Scotland understand what’s happening to keep the promise.
Plan 24-30 organises the 80+ actions from the Independent Care Review under the five foundations of the promise, resulting in 25 themes which set out where Scotland needs to be by 2030.
Each theme contains a route map— setting out what changes must happen, by when, and by who, for the promise to be kept by 2030.
About the route maps
The route maps are a crucial step in keeping the promise, outlining key milestones, initiatives, and timelines.
Plan 24-30’s route maps are already live and are being continuously reviewed and updated to capture the actions that are already progressing.
The next step is identifying the milestones up to 2030, which will make clear who is leading, what the action is and when work will begin. They will provide clarity on the national direction across the different areas to keep the promise.
Where there are existing national plans or priorities, the route maps will help bring these together. This helps us see how different areas of work connect and support each other.
The Promise Scotland has made supporting developing the content for route maps a priority for 2025.
