ALISS – A Local Information System for Scotland
ALISS is a national digital programme enabling people and professionals to find and share information on health and wellbeing resources, services, groups, and support in their local communities and online.
ALISS can help you find information about resources like:
- services that provide support for managing long term conditions
- groups that support social and community connection (e.g., local choirs, book groups, befriending)
- activities that offer opportunities for getting more active and for getting outdoors (e.g., badminton clubs, community gardens)
- practical, legal, and financial support (e.g., money advice, advocacy services)
- digital technology that can support health and social care (e.g., online forums, health related mobile apps).
ALISS aims to ensure that everyone in Scotland has the right information, at the right time, about resources that are available to help them live well and stay connected to their community.

Highland Directory of Services
The Highland Directory of Support Services is an online resource for everyone in the Highlands to find and share information about services and organisations that may help with the health and wellbeing of individuals and families.
It includes groups, activities, and organisations on a wide range of topics including, bereavement, isolation and food support and many others.
The directory is a joint project between NHS Highland and Highland Third Sector Interface. They have gathered information from a range of sources to share details of organisations, clubs and charities. Resources such as ALISS have helped build the directory. It has been developed for the Community Link Workers service, but it was recognised that a directory would be useful for everyone looking for information in Highland.

Highland Mental Wellbeing
This website is a list of services, information and training around the subject of mental health and wellbeing.
It can be confusing to know where to start with online information, so it aims to help by highlighting some of the best websites and sources of help.
It also provides information about training and resources for community/service volunteers or paid staff, in a ‘helping’ or supporting role.
