For many years there have been mixed messages around drinking alcohol in pregnancy, but a new hard-hitting campaign by NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde aims to clear up the confusion once and for all. “No alcohol, no alcohol harm” is the theme of an information campaign, aimed at pregnant women and those thinking about having a baby, to highlight the risk of their child being born with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD).

Community Smokefree and Pharmacy Smokefree Services have been working together across Glasgow City to run specialist stop smoking clinics within priority neighbourhood areas for health improvement, which have traditionally high footfall for smoking cessation services but low quit rates.

There has been significant financial investment in this service over the past year.

Glasgow City Health and Social Care Partnership’s Facing the Future Together (FTFT) Staff Awards ceremony took place on the morning of 12 September at the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall. The Awards recognise and thank individual staff and teams within the Partnership for ‘going the extra mile’ in their work within a number of categories, especially in situations when they or their service have been under additional pressure or when they have implemented an improvement idea that has yielded significant benefit.

Councillor Mhairi Hunter, Vice Chair of the Glasgow City Integration Joint Board (IJB), has been finding time in her busy diary to meet staff across the Partnership and observe first-hand the transforming impact that services are having on individuals and communities.

During the summer months David Williams, Chief Officer, has been carrying out a number of visits to discuss and see first-hand the work frontline Glasgow City Health and Social Care Partnership staff are involved in.
