John Lamberton i was bitterly disappointed to hear of the plans to close mosspark station. it appears to me that the s n p government, having cancelled the glasgow airport link when it was nearing fulfilment. then ploughed hundreds of millions into the edinburgh tram system which is way over budget and wont do the whole route when it eventually runs sometime in 2014, and also have plans of grandeur to build a new forth road bridge it beggars belief as to how much that will cost. so what does it do. lets close some glasgow rail stations, as anything west of edinburgh is fair game. there appears to be an east west divide already with glasgow taking all the cuts and edinburgh reaping all the rewards, one of the stations they want to cut mosspark is on the glasgow central/paisley canal route, is a twenty minute journey calling at five stations in between dumbreck, corkerhill, mosspark, crookston, hawkhead. mosspark station it is also a vital transport link to the community, serving the residents of north pollok as well as the residents of north cardonald. as there are no bus links within the immediate area. it gives the community the choice of travel into paisley or glasgow , it is also an unmanned station, so i cant see where the financial saving would come from, if you weigh up the disruption it would do to the community as a whole. you cant expect school kids or pensioners or people on wheelchairs or for that matter woman with prams to walk over a mile detour to the stations either side of mosspark as the roads dont follow the railtrack. it is ok for someone to look at a map and say that doesnt look to far as the crow flies. but i can assure you it does and as i have already said there is no bus route within the area. and as the line is to remain open a two minute stop would not create any hardship for the railway, as i was under the impression that that the railway was there to serve the community. .

South East Glasgow Community Health and Care Partnership Health Improvement Plan 2006/07 Draft
SOUTH EAST GLASGOW COMMUNITY HEALTH AND CARE PARTNERSHIP HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLAN 2006/07 DRAFT DRAFT 1 FOREWORD Alan Stewart Chair, South East Community Health & Care Partnership (CHCP) This Plan sets out a programme for change and action to improve health and reduce the ‘inequalities gap’ of the people of South East Glasgow. Change in the way health and social care services are delivered and accessed and action that breaks the cycle of deprivation and helps build local communities where no one is held back by disadvantage. Delivering this agenda will require new ways of thinking to support and encourage people to take greater control for their own health and new ways of working that will win the support and commitment of our staff and the people we serve. Anticipating need, improving local access and shifting the balance of care from institutions with less reliance on hospital based and accommodated care to care closer to home will require greater collaboration and involvement from all partners. It is our intention to actively encourage service users, carers and the people of South East Glasgow to participate in local service planning, service modernisation and service delivery. We will also seek to secure involvement from all staff groups and key organisations. Targeting resources locally on the most vulnerable and those with greatest need to tackle lifestyle issues and those factors that are often considered outside the health domain will also be a key objective for us. These factors or determinants include: housing, education, employment status and living in a community where people feel safe from crime and anti social behaviour.
