Restart - Supporting people with severe and enduring mental health conditions

Restart is an NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde (NHSGGC) mental health project that works with Glasgow City Health and Social Care Partnership’s (HSCP) Community Mental Health Teams.

The project offers recovery-based support for people living with severe and enduring mental health conditions. Trainees are given the opportunity to take part in various vocational training activities to increase self-belief and build resilience. The programme helps around 250 people each year.

Local help to quit smoking

Help to quit smoking is free and available locally from Glasgow City Health and Social Care Partnership (HSCP) staff and community pharmacies.

Our HSCP’s Quit Your Way community services offer specialist holistic support to help people stop smoking. Our staff focus on reducing health inequality and smoking prevalence in some of Glasgow City’s most deprived areas.

Partnership project shows the importance of good data collection in predicting and preventing falls

For most of us if we’re healthy, falling over can lead to a skint knee, and if it happens in public, maybe a bit of embarrassment.

However, for some people, the lasting effects can be much more serious, leading to hospitalisation and often the beginning of a cycle of poor health or even a loss of their independence at home. Injuries caused by falls are a leading cause of hospital admission and death for those aged over 75. On average, there are over 4,000 hospital admissions in Glasgow each year due to a fall.
