Scottish Breastfeeding week ran from 9 to 15 June, and Glasgow City Health and Social Care Partnership (HSCP) staff were out and about promoting the benefits of breastfeeding and celebrating the twentieth anniversary of the Breastfeeding (Scotland) Act 2005.  

Community nurses working with Glasgow City Health and Social Care (HSCP) Partnership were presented with Long Service Awards from the Queen's Institute for Community Nursing Scotland (QNIS) on 27 November.

TASK Family Support and Learning Centre in the Gorbals area has become the first early years establishment to fully sign up to the Breastfeeding Friendly Early Years Scheme in Glasgow City. The nursery is part of a pilot for the scheme, operating in Glasgow South and North East localities.

Five of our HSCP’s mental health and alcohol and drug recovery service colleagues were celebrated at the Royal College of Nursing (RCN) Scotland Nurse of the Year Awards 2024. The Awards took place on Thursday, 23 May, and recognised outstanding contributions to nursing. 

Congratulations to Morrisons Anniesland for being awarded Breastfeeding Friendly Scotland accreditation in Glasgow.

Some of Glasgow City Health and Social Care Partnership’s (HSCP) health visitors have been taking part in intensive autism training. 

If you’re keen to support a vulnerable child but not able to make a full-time commitment, then you could be a short breaks carer with Families for Children – the fostering and adoption service for Glasgow City Health and Social Care Partnership (HSCP).

Breastfeeding is important to the health of both mother and baby. While many new mums start breastfeeding, some stop within a few weeks or months. This is often because they feel there’s a lack of support, particularly when they want to feed their baby outside their home. 

Glasgow City Health and Social Care Partnership’s (HSCP) hosts NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde’s Mental Health Board-Wide Services, and we’re celebrating our mental health nursing staff who were successful at the Mental Health Nursing Forum Scotland Awards held on 6 October.
