Housing First Delivers Almost 250 Glasgow Tenancies for Homeless People 

Former bar worker, Fraser, is starting a new life in a secure settled tenancy after experiencing homelessness on and off since his teens. Four weeks ago, the 44-year-old got the keys to a flat in North West Glasgow where he is settling in and planning a brighter future.

Thanks to Glasgow's Housing First programme, which provides people with tenancies and intensive wraparound support, he plans to make this flat a permanent home.

Growing Well Together at Shields Community Garden

A community garden, which was established as part of Glasgow City Health and Social Care Partnership’s (HSCP) Shields Health and Care Centre, has been a sanctuary to people struggling with their mental health, isolation or loneliness.

The garden is an oasis of green tranquility in the heart of Pollokshields. It has raised beds for vegetable growing, fruit bushes, a mini-orchard and a border with a variety of plants traditionally used for maintaining health.
