Abstract
All Local Child Poverty Action Plans require midwives, health visitors and family nurses to identify families with children under five at risk of financial hardship, and to refer them for help to increase their household incomes. This strategy (the so-called Financial Inclusion Pathway) is one of the range of efforts outlined in the Child Poverty Action Plans, aimed at increasing household income and alleviating child poverty in Scotland. A qualitative study took place to increase understanding about the early implementation of the Financial Inclusion Pathway within the NHS Grampian area. The research set out to establish how this initiative was operating within and impacting on the clinical practice of those health professionals concerned with delivering on it. The project also aimed to learn more about these health professionals' experiences of benefit gained, from the perspectives of parents and their children. The study took place between April and August 2021, and was funded by an NHS Grampian Endowments grant. This briefing paper summarises the project, and its conclusions and recommendations.
