BLOG - Our 12 Days of Christmas
ADR Scotland are pleased to share our '12 Days of Christmas'. We've looked back over 2024 and selected twelve highlights from our year.
We are delighted that SCADR, the Scottish Government, and our delivery bodies have continued to work together successfully to build on ADR Scotland's success. Together we are transforming how public sector data in Scotland is curated, accessed and explored, thus enabling research on a wide range of critical issues in Scotland including children's lives and outcomes, lifelong health and well-being, health and social care, poverty and fair work, and building safer communities.
Our 12 highlights are:
