Empowering foster carers and adoptive parents through learning and lived experience

Glasgow City Health and Social Care Partnership (HSCP) is shining a spotlight on the vital role our foster carers and adoptive parents play in the lives of children and young people with two new initiatives.

A brand new online learning platform, GOLD (Glasgow Online Learning and Development), has been launched to give Glasgow’s foster carers and adoptive parents easy access to high quality training and support materials. This platform received recognition at our HSCP’s 2026 Staff Awards for Excellence.

Quarterly Performance Reports

In line with the Partnership’s performance management arrangements, performance reports are produced on a quarterly basis. These reports are then scrutinised by citywide and locality management teams. The Integration Joint Board’s Finance, Audit and Scrutiny Committee also receives a quarterly performance report and, at each meeting, they focus on specific service areas with service leads. These reports can be accessed below

Supporting parents to chat about sexual health and relationships

The Chat is a new website that has been developed by health professionals to help you to support your child as they learn about friendships, relationships and growing up.

You can look for what you need depending on the age of your child, the topic that they are interested in or the questions they ask.

The Chat website was developed in response to feedback from, parents who took part in an engagement process to share their experiences of supporting their child’s learning at home.
