  • Overview of Allocated Funding
    Overview of allocated funding A combined total of £979,625 has been awarded to 116 community groups and workplaces through the Cycling Friendly programme with a further £821,991 awarded to registered social landlords across Scotland for improvement facilities to promote walking and cycling. More than 90,000 people will benefit from the funding. Setting Number funded Amount funded People impacted Community groups 48 £536,737 Data not collected Employers 68 £442,888 27,500 Social housing 33 £821,991 62,119 providers Total 149 £1,801,616 89,619 Kath Brough, Head of Behaviour Change at Cycling Scotland said: “We’re delighted to announce funding to 149 organisations across Scotland to encourage more people to cycle. Cycling Scotland work closely with partners to help employers, community groups and housing associations take advantage of the benefits of cycling and this round of funding will provide opportunity for over 90,000 people across Scotland to access improved cycling facilities.” Elderbank Housing Association, based in Govan, Glasgow, will receive £25,000 to install cycle parking for the 2,700 residents living across their properties, where currently there is no cycle parking. Jim Fraser, Estate Management Inspector, said “lack of storage has been a key issue for residents, especially those in older tenement buildings, so installing bike parking will remove a significant barrier to the uptake in bike ownership and cycling as a healthy activity. Govan is well established as an area of high deprivation and residents can often be found to have low household income and higher levels of household debt. This can impact greatly on people’s ability to access public transport beyond a limited geographical area and frequency due to a lack of sufficient finance.

  • Easterhouse Thriving Place
    Easterhouse Thriving Place October 2017 Welcome to Easterhouse Thriving Place Thriving Places was introduced in Easterhouse to help improve the quality of life of people who live and work here. This can mean trying to improve health and wellbeing, community safety, education, employment, income, housing, the local environment or access to services. It can also mean encouraging local involvement in decision making. A key part of Thriving Places is providing services with people, not to people. This means engaging with communities using a grass roots approach to deliver the right services in order to address the right local needs. A Community Organiser was recruited in August 2016 to help local communities get involved in Thriving Places. As such, the work is just ending its first year. This 10-year plan will tell you more about what Thriving Places is doing in Easterhouse. It is based on consultation with local people over the last year. This is a living plan, which means that it will change as more local people get involved and the work progresses. Local communities have to be meaningfully involved for the plan to work. Without local communities and our partners working together we cannot achieve what the plan sets out. Local organisations are already involved in the Easterhouse Steering Group and we are keen for local people to join too. This plan is for people who live and work in the local area and there are plenty of opportunities to be involved in different ways. This could mean setting up or joining a community group, joining a club, attending meetings, volunteering or just telling us what you like or what you would like to change about the local area.

  • Cranhill Development Trust
    Cranhill Development Trust 31 January 2017 1. Context Cranhill Development Trust is based in the Cranhill community of North East Glasgow. It primarily serves the postcode areas G32 and G33 and covers a population of about 3,500 people. This is an area of multiple deprivation. Nearly all children at the two local primaries come from households which are in the lowest 15% in Scotland as recorded in the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation. The community had a significantly higher population until the 1990’s when changes in the housing infrastructure resulted in people moving away from the area and many local services including a secondary school and swimming pool closing. The organisation which became Cranhill Development Trust started as part of the local church, with which it shares a building, in 2002. The organisation evolved over the years increasing in scope and scale becoming a development trust in 2011. The site includes a learning centre, a large hall used by the church and community events as well as for learning activities, small meeting spaces and a café run by a local business. The Trust also has an extensive community garden behind its main site. The Trust aims to provide person-centred, responsive support services which are inclusive and are not age or gender specific. They focus on a community development and regeneration approach that aims to build and increases capacity within the community. They run a range of programmes with the main activities focusing around work to support employment, welcome and integrate refugees and asylum seekers, and increase wellbeing and community cohesion.
