Culturally Sensitive Services

In response to the major health inequalities faced by BME communities living in Glasgow, REACH provides a broad based, integrated health service programme.

Moreover, REACH’s service delivery is sensitive to issues of ethnicity, race, and religion/faith.

Training is available to organisations working for and with BME communities in Scotland within the mainstream, voluntary and private sectors.
