Thriving Places was introduced in Govan in 2017. It is a ten-year commitment from
Glasgow Community Planning Partnership (CPP) with the aim of helping to improve
the quality of life of people who live and work in Govan, along with another 9 areas in
Glasgow.
Each area has its own unique and complex needs and strengths, and a guiding principle
of Thriving places is taking an individual, community-tailored approach to how community
groups, services and organisations work together to address local priorities.
Through discussions and consultations within the community, a number of local priorities
emerged for Govan. These have formed the basis for the working groups listed below,
which are made up of organisations, groups, statutory services, and community members.
- Food For Good
- Arts, Heritage and Wellbeing
- Learning for Life and Work
- Children & Families
- Young People
- Positive Communities
Please note that Thriving Places is not a CGAP/ THI project. If you have any specific questions,
