  • 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.

  • Health Improvement in South West Glasgow a Rapid Appraisal
    Health Improvement in South West Glasgow A rapid appraisal Anne Scoular Specialist Registrar in Public Health Medicine January 2004 Health Improvement in SW Glasgow : a rapid appraisal Final Report: January 2004 Executive Summary Community Health Partnerships (CHPs) are fundamental elements of the new NHS structure in Scotland and 'Health improvement' will be one of their most important and fundamental objectives. However, 'health improvement' is an ill-defined concept, both in terms of its definition and the processes involved in achieving it. This paper describes the findings of a rapid appraisal of health improvement endeavour within two localities in Glasgow, one a SIP-designated area (Greater Pollok) and the second a non-SIP area (the Greater Shawlands LHCC geographical area, with consideration of the applicability of this evidence to design of CHPs in the Greater Glasgow NHS Board area. The work was conducted in the form of a short scoping exercise, which comprised three separate, but related sets of activity: • Documentary analysis of local policy, planning and evaluation papers • Selected routine data • Individual interviews with key staff in the Local Health Care Cooperatives (LHCCs), the SIP Board, relevant community projects, Health Promotion and Glasgow City Council Cultural & Leisure Services The rapid appraisal was specifically not intended to be an evaluation of health improvement activities. The work was scoping exercise described the strengths and weaknesses of existing activity, as understood from the perspective of those involved in delivery of the programmes. The key findings, and associated recommendations, were as follows : 1. 'Health improvement' has a wide diversity of meanings among the many individuals and agencies involved in activities seeking health improvement; misunderstandings are the norm.
