Introduction
This report summarises changes that have and will be made to the content of the Scottish Health Survey (SHeS) from 2024 onwards. Some of these changes do not apply to the 2024 survey and will be made to future years.
SHeS is an annual, national survey that provides a detailed picture of the health and health-related behaviours of the Scottish population in private households and is designed to make a major contribution to the monitoring of health in Scotland. It is used by the Scottish Government (SG) and other stakeholders to inform the development and evaluation of policies to improve population health. It allows the monitoring of inequalities identifying which groups are at particular risk of future ill-health and provides both national and local level evidence.
The results from the 2024 survey will be published in Autumn 2025.
More information on the survey, including previous results, can be found on the SG’s SHeS pages.
