  • Simd Analysis: Future Projections
    SIMD ANALYSIS: FUTURE PROJECTIONS 1. Background and Introduction 1.1. This paper analyses the reasons behind the recent decline of deprivation in Glasgow, projects these trends towards 2015, and comments on their likely implications. It is based on a presentation made to the Community Planning Executive Group on 2nd June 2010, which itself came from a series of events held in autumn 2009/spring 2010, involving over 120 people from council and non- council organisations in Glasgow. 1.2. The gains Glasgow made in reducing its share of Scotland’s deprivation have been the result of long-term trends that have been operating over the last two or more decades. Identifying both the trends that led to the current situation, and those currently in operation which can reasonably be presented as being influential in Glasgow towards 2015, form the basis of the projections in this paper. The main indicator used has been the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD), and the analysis of three waves (2004, 2006 and 2009) has been supported by the use of other indicators. Looking at the absence of deprivation as well as at areas defined by deprivation includes all communities and gives a rounded analysis of the city. 1.3. The trends that have shaped the city at present are long-term and have been in operation since the 1990s, if not earlier. It follows that trends that can be identified in the present day will be those that influence the city by 2015. Their general direction has been to accelerate Glasgow’s development to its current position as a representative medium-sized western European city.

    September 2016 Community-driven place making ‘Lamlash, Arran (Irvine HA) Produced as part of the Scottish Government’s Joint Housing Delivery Plan by: GWSF Glasgow and West of Scotland Forum of Housing Associations Contents Foreword In conjunction with a range of housing Foreword Pages 2-3 organisations, the Scottish Government has developed a Joint Housing Delivery Plan to help achieve its housing objectives. Some of New homes the actions arising from this Plan are specifi c in Ardgeal, steps which may be needed to, for example, Kincraig facilitate the provision of new homes. Other actions in the Plan are about promoting Pages 4-5 good practice, and that’s what this short publication aims to do. Action point 17 in the Plan begins with “people want to infl uence what happens in their New homes neighbourhood”, and so this booklet draws together in Helmsdale, some examples from across Scotland of how place making – in most cases involving the provision of new Sutherland homes – has been driven by the local community. Pages 6-7 This will have been the case since time began and will always be the case, but with just a short step back into the history books we see where the housing New homes association movement was started, in the main as community led organisations, by communities who in Gairloch, wanted to infl uence and meet their local needs Wester Ross adequately. This has been hugely successful and still allows community infl uence in a lot of areas. Pages 8-9 For those outside the housing association movement it has been a more mixed picture historically.
