Skilled for Health (SfH) is a cross-cutting Government–voluntary sector initiative between the Department of Health (DoH), Department for Education and Skills (DfES) and ContinYou. It has evolved from the national adult basic skills programme, Skills for Life, and a series of pilot studies. Using embedded learning, SfH aims to address people’s needs for a better understanding and improvement of their health. There are two sets of resources - Making the Case promotes the strategic goals, and the Teacher and learner materials support practical implementation. The original pilot materials are also available.
