  • 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.

In this paper, we present an exploratory case study of UA practice on the Southside of Glasgow, UK that traced the emergence and development of four UA projects. Data from the four projects revealed a diversity of practices, including temporary gardening projects organised by local volunteers, a community and market garden operated by a charity, a food shop and vegetable distribution service run by a social enterprise, and a permanent growing space for charities and schools provided by local government. UA practitioners in Glasgow have sought to re-purpose vacant and derelict land, build social cohesion, contribute to environmental and food sustainability and provide participation space for marginalised groups. Reflecting on future avenues for research on UA in Glasgow, we have identified two broad policy pathways that are emerging both at the local level and through national legislation in Scotland to harness local urban food growing and support UA.

  • Creative Communities
    CELEBRATING CREATIVE COMMUNITIES ARTISTS IN RESIDENCE Phase 1: Listening to Glasgow In December 2018 a new Glasgow-wide initiative was announced. Creative Communities: Artists in Residence, funded by Glasgow City Council and delivered by Glasgow Life, would employ an artist in residence for every community. The scale of the project was unprecedented, commissioning 23 artists and arts organisations and placing them in the 23 wards of Scotland’s largest city. In the first phase ofCreative Communities, from March – June 2019, artists worked in every one of the 23 wards, connecting with local groups and individuals to find out what they want from an artist’s residency. Coming from a huge range of disciplines, and using a whole variety of art forms – photography, storytelling, theatre, music, textiles, film-making and much, much more – they have enabled conversations with thousands of Glaswegians of all ages, abilities and backgrounds. This publication is a record of that first phase ofCreative Communities, giving a snapshot of the many events, activities, workshops and discussions that have been taking place right across the city, and the many groups who were involved. The ideas they have generated will shape the future of this truly pioneering project, designed by residents, for the community they live in. Details of Phase 2 of this audacious project, drawing on the recommendations of the 23 Artists in Residence, will be announced before the end of 2019. Councillor David McDonald, Chair, Glasgow Life Visit glasgowlife.org.uk/creative to find out more.

Before 1850 and for several decades afterwards, the whole area was farmland and much of it poor, agriculturally. But by 1900 the neighbourhood was well-established with both villa and tenements in ‘middle class’ occupation. There was no question of Pollokshields tenements being slums – these ‘flatted houses’ had their own toilet and bathroom facilities unlike many of their contemporaries elsewhere.
