In this section the transportation aims and actions are presented. Issues of a strategic nature are grouped together under area-wide aims and actions.

  • Local Child Poverty Action Report Renfrewshire 2019/2020 Foreword
    Local Child Poverty Action Report Renfrewshire 2019/2020 Foreword This report sets out activities undertaken in Renfrewshire to reduce child poverty between April 2019 and March 2020. This, our second report, shows how we have built on the work we have carried out in previous years, and that which was reported last year in our first Local Child Poverty Action Report. The report has been jointly developed by Renfrewshire Council, NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde (NHSGGC), and Renfrewshire Health and Social Care Partnership (HSCP). It also includes information about partnership work to tackle child poverty across Renfrewshire’s Community Planning Partnership and beyond. Normally, the Local Child Poverty Action Report would cover future plans for the year ahead, however, from March 2020, the response to Covid-19 became a significant focus for the Council, the NHS and partners. Safeguarding families and individuals became increasingly vital within what is an ever-changing landscape. Our Council teams quickly put initial measures into place: providing payments to families in place of free school meals; relaxing Scottish Welfare Fund rules and quickly ensuring a supply of essential food and other items was in place for our most vulnerable families. This was supplemented by the forming of a Local Assistance Team, Neighbourhood Hubs and a Community Food group to help facilitate a Renfrewshire wide community response to Covid-19 issues. As the year continues we know we will have to deal with more unemployment and lower incomes in families from furloughing, continued shielding and protection of vulnerable people along with issues, financial and otherwise, caused by school closures.

PREFACE. ACTING upon the suggestion of the retiring Master and other prominent members of the Lanarkshire and Renfrewshire Hunt, I have ventured to produce an historical record which it is hoped will meet with the appreciation of those interested. For the description of the sport of the past twenty seasons I am greatly indebted to the diaries so perfectly kept by the late Mr. J. J. Barclay, which were kindly placed at my disposal by Mr. G. Barclay. Without such a valuable asset no work of this kind could ever have been attempted, and I have made the fullest possible use of these records, so that sportsmen and sportswomen of the last quarter of a century can refresh their memory in regard to the many great runs enjoyed during that period. I hope I have succeeded in an effort to furnish a complete and unvarnished account of the doings of the pack, together with a history of the Hunt since its origin. Possibly, at some future time, another enthusiast will take up the pen and bring the records up to date. Harry Judd (" Tantivy "). CONTENTS.

  • 1 Rugged Upland Farmland
    SNH National Landscape Character Assessment Landscape Character Type 202 RUGGED UPLAND FARMLAND Location and Context The Rugged Upland Farmland Landscape Character Type, which shares many of the attributes of Plateau Farmland – Glasgow & Clyde Valley, is found in Kilmacolm, Johnstone and Neilston. It occurs in lnverclyde, Renfrewshire and East Renfrewshire local authority areas, north and west of Newton Mearns, where the smooth plateau farmlands and higher plateau moorlands give way to a more rugged farmland landscape, forming a transition to the rugged moorland area further north west. Key Characteristics Rugged landform comprising rocky bluffs and shallow troughs. Reservoirs in flooded troughs. Dominance of pastoral farming. Frequent tree cover often emphasising landform, for example concentrated on bluffs and outcrops. Settlement limited to farms and villages. Landscape Character Description Landform The Rugged Upland Farmland landscapes are, for the large part underlain by millstone grits and carboniferous limestone with peripheral, higher areas of basalt. They are characterised, to a greater or lesser degree, by a rugged, hummocky landscape of steep, craggy bluffs interspersed with gentler farmland. Many of the troughs and valleys are flooded, providing reservoirs for urban areas to the north. The area south of Gleniffer Braes is more gentle and plateau-like. Landcover Woodland cover is relatively extensive, providing an important structural element, with many of the rugged hillocks covered in stands of beech or pine. The more hospitable areas are mostly improved pasture (mainly given over to sheep farming). Beech hedgerow trees are a 1 SNH National Landscape Character Assessment LCT 202 RUGGED UPLAND FARMLAND distinctive feature in many parts of this landscape, often associated with past estates.

  • Renfrewshire Incapacity Benefit Claimant Profile
    Scottish Observatory for Work and Health University of Glasgow Renfrewshire Incapacity Benefit Claimant Profile April 2010 Judith Brown Joel Smith David Webster James Arnott Ivan Turok Ewan Macdonald Richard Mitchell Contact: Judith Brown Public Health & Health Policy 1 Lilybank Gardens University of Glasgow Glasgow G12 8RZ [email protected] 1 Summary & Key Findings Renfrewshire Incapacity Benefit claimant Profile 1. This incapacity benefit (IB) claimant profile for Renfrewshire gives detailed information on IB claimants by sex, age, reason for claiming IB and length of time on IB. It also contains IB claimant rates for the 38 intermediate zones in Renfrewshire (in 2008, Paisley Ferguslie had the highest IB rate at 23.1% and Houston South the lowest rate at 2.8%). 2. In 2008 there were 10,800 IB claimants in Renfrewshire. The IB rate, on flow rate and off flow rate were determined for Renfrewshire from 2000 to 2008. The percent of the working age population claiming IB has decreased from 12.3% to 10.2% from 2000 to 2008. The rate of on flow has decreased from 3.5% to 2.6% and the off flow rate has increased from 25.0% to 28.5%. 3. The proportion of ‘payment’ IB claimants is larger in Renfrewshire compared to Scotland for both males and females. The proportion of male and female ‘credits only’ IB claimants (those with a poor work history) have increased from 2000 to 2008. There are more female ‘credits only’ claimants than males in Renfrewshire. 4. The proportion of each age group who are claimants rises with age, peaking in the 60-64 age group.
