PRODUCED BY THE OFFICE FOR PUBLIC HEALTH IN SCOTLAND Notes •Because there are no up to date population figures by constituency area, the 1991 census data were used. Therefore some percentages may be higher or lower in reality. •The data used only represent one year and do not reflect the trend in these variables. Some figures (e.g. accident rates) may be random or they may be consistent over time. Trend data will be considered in any future developments of the profiles. •Some rates are based on small numbers. Therefore large above/below average percentages for these variables should be interpreted with caution. •Some of the variations in the indicators may be due mostly to the structure of the population within a constituency. •Orkney and Shetland have been kept together as one profile due to the difficulties in splitting the data. Providing constituency level data for each is something that will be considered in future work.

  • 27 March 2006 Carron Valley Development Group Msp
    27 MARCH 2006 CARRON VALLEY DEVELOPMENT GROUP MSP LAUNCHES CENTRAL SCOTLAND’S FIRST PURPOSE BUILT MOUNTAIN BIKE TRAILS Central Scotland's first purpose built mountain bike trails were opened at Carron Valley, near Kilsyth, North Lanarkshire, today (27 March) by the MSP for Cumbernauld and Kilsyth, Cathie Craigie. Over 9km of trails catering for all abilities of rider have been constructed by volunteers from the Carron Valley Development Group (CVDG) working in partnership with North Lanarkshire Council, Stirling Council and Forestry Commission Scotland. The professionally designed and constructed trails located within Carron Valley Forest offer an excellent recreational opportunity to the local community as well as thousands of residents living within the Central Belt. Opening the trails, Mrs Craigie said: "I am delighted to be opening the Carron Valley mountain bike trails. Mountain biking is an increasingly popular sport in Scotland, encouraging people to pursue an active lifestyle whilst enjoying the wonderful countryside around them. The sport is also attracting many tourists to the country who come to enjoy the many challenging and exciting trails we have to offer. The Carron Valley trails are ideally positioned to ensure that both the local community and visitors from further afield will benefit from them. Excellent transport links, coupled with a variety of other attractions nearby, will help drive the economic development of the area. Given the tremendous work that has been done in partnership in their development, I am confident that the trails will become a firm favourite with all who use and visit the forest.” Local biking volunteers formed the Carron Valley Development Group in 2003 to develop sustainable mountain bike routes in Carron Valley and have been the lead group involved with the project.
