We collaborate widely across the UK (e.g., with the National Centre for Remote and Rural Health and Care, NHS Scotland Youth Academy, the University of Oxford and many others) and internationally (e.g., academics in the Republic of Ireland, Luxemburg and USA amongst others). We have active links with colleagues from other Schools across the institution including education and psychology.
