Our people

Governance

The governance group is a central team within the Scottish COVID-19 Response Consortium (SCRC) which helps coordinate SCRCs overall infrastructure.  Each member of the governance group is responsible for overseeing a different aspect of the consortium, and they bring these different areas together to ensure the best development and use of the six models.
