1. Equally Well test sites:
Local service redesign and transformation
Better “client pathways”
Working within existing budgets
Learning and influencing through networking

2. Glasgow City: how can planning affect health?
Conditions in which people live and work
Access to facilities and services
Lifestyles
Ability to develop social networks
Mental health, well-being, quality of life

3. Here are a couple of examples of some of the existing open space in deprived areas in Glasgow. While parks may be available, quality is often poor and people feel unsafe walking in their local area.

4. Public Street Improvements and Infill Development

One of the major sections of the Equally Well implementation plan is the Test Sites. As identified in Equally Well – we have selected eight test sites across Scotland. These test sites reflect the range of Equally Well themes and across a range of locations.
Whitecrook, West Dunbartonshire - targeting the high prevalence of smoking in the area
East Lothian - looking at health inequalities in early years in Prestonpans, Musselburgh East and Tranent
Govanhill, Glasgow - looking at community regeneration and development
Blairgowrie - looking at delivering health inequality sensitive services in a rural setting for people with multiple and complex needs
Lanarkshire - focusing on sustained employment and barriers to people finding employment
Fife - focusing on anti-social behaviour in relation to alcohol and underage drinking
Dundee - focusing on methods of improving wellbeing
Glasgow City - looking at integrating health into current and future city planning
These sites will be hugely important in testing our new approach to service delivery. We have moved away from telling people what to do and how to do it - to asking what does your local area need and how can you address this.
