  • Overview of Allocated Funding
    Overview of allocated funding A combined total of £979,625 has been awarded to 116 community groups and workplaces through the Cycling Friendly programme with a further £821,991 awarded to registered social landlords across Scotland for improvement facilities to promote walking and cycling. More than 90,000 people will benefit from the funding. Setting Number funded Amount funded People impacted Community groups 48 £536,737 Data not collected Employers 68 £442,888 27,500 Social housing 33 £821,991 62,119 providers Total 149 £1,801,616 89,619 Kath Brough, Head of Behaviour Change at Cycling Scotland said: “We’re delighted to announce funding to 149 organisations across Scotland to encourage more people to cycle. Cycling Scotland work closely with partners to help employers, community groups and housing associations take advantage of the benefits of cycling and this round of funding will provide opportunity for over 90,000 people across Scotland to access improved cycling facilities.” Elderbank Housing Association, based in Govan, Glasgow, will receive £25,000 to install cycle parking for the 2,700 residents living across their properties, where currently there is no cycle parking. Jim Fraser, Estate Management Inspector, said “lack of storage has been a key issue for residents, especially those in older tenement buildings, so installing bike parking will remove a significant barrier to the uptake in bike ownership and cycling as a healthy activity. Govan is well established as an area of high deprivation and residents can often be found to have low household income and higher levels of household debt. This can impact greatly on people’s ability to access public transport beyond a limited geographical area and frequency due to a lack of sufficient finance.

Purpose of Report This is a report of the findings of a health stakeholder event with the City Plan Team which provided a retrospective analysis of how health was integrated in City Plan 2 and identified potential health impacts of City Plan 3. The workshop was held in The Mitchell Library on 1 March 2010. Findings in this report are based on the knowledge and experience of those present at the workshop, thus is not a definitive statement or assessment; however appendices are attached that summarise relevant research findings. This report describes the process, the discussions at the tables and the results of the prioritisation exercise. It will contribute to the consultation for City Plan 3. 2. Background The 2006 Planning Act in Scotland requires all local planning authorities to prepare a local development plan scheme to guide new development and regeneration. There are significant changes under the new development plan system, including the production of a main issues report rather than a consultative draft plan and improving public consultation and engagement.
