§ Mr. Michael ForsythIn addition to the information pack the Scottish Health Education Group supplies to health professionals annually, we recently launched the Scotish campaign "Keep Warm This Winter" to remind old people and other vulnerable groups of the simple, practical steps they can take to minimise risks in winter, and to encourage good citizenship among the population generally. The campaign comprises the distribution of 1 million copies of a leaflet, supporting publicity and a free telephone helpline.
