  • GLASGOW WEST END U3A January 2021 Newsletter
    GLASGOW WEST END U3A January 2021 Newsletter Dear All Happy New Year to you all. 2021 has got off to a shaky start but hopefully it will improve. We just want a vaccine… The weather has been lovely though a bit treacherous underfoot in places. The hospital grounds at Gartnavel Royal have been well-gritted and are ideal for a sunny winter walk. Bingham’s Pond provided much entertainment for children when most of it was frozen. Bit too much excitement for me, I prefer to be on firmer ground. GWEU3A continues to be busy on Zoom/Facebook/WhatsApp. We had a lovely Christmas Event by Fool’s Gold in December which all enjoyed. The David Hume Institute Focus Group on what we found important to happiness during lockdown, leading on to Equality and Fairness, proved very popular and stimulating. A number of you walked for Shelter with a pal in December which was worthwhile exercise. Coffee and Chat continues to be popular and a good way to meet members. The small groups are continuing very well with a new French group starting up. Edith Fleming is getting musicians together to play and listen to classical music. If you wish to join them please indicate through the website in the usual way. After the Focus Group a number of people expressed an interest in being part of a Current Affairs Group. This would require members to be unbiased politically, and would require a structure and format a bit like the Focus group. If you are interested in further discussion about such a group please email me at [email protected] and I will try to facilitate it.

Executive Summary The City of Glasgow has a long tradition in the pursuit of a high quality built environment and public realm, continuing to the present day. This strategy represents the next steps in this tradition by setting out how open space should be planned, created, enhanced and managed in order to meet the priorities for Glasgow for the 21st century. This is not just an open space strategy. It is a cross‐cutting vision for delivering a high quality environment that supports economic vitality, improves the health of Glasgow’s residents, provides opportunities for low carbon movement, builds resilience to climate change, supports ecological networks and encourages community cohesion. This is because, when planned well, open space can provide multiple functions that deliver numerous social, economic and environmental benefits. Realising these benefits should be undertaken in a way that is tailored to the needs of the City. As such, this strategy examines the priorities Glasgow has set out and identifies six cross‐cutting strategic priority themes for how open space can contribute to meeting them.
