The Shaping Places for Wellbeing Programme is a delivery partnership between the Improvement Service and Public Health Scotland (PHS), funded and supported by The Health Foundation and Scottish Government with support from COSLA.
The overall ambition of the programme is to improve Scotland?s wellbeing and reduce inequalities. It aims to change our collective approaches to the places where we live, work and play. To deliver upstream preventative interventions that reduce Scotland?s significant health inequalities while delivering on the range of national ambitions around Covid recovery and climate action. Promoting strong partnership working around data driven knowledge on inequality with citizen involvement to create systems change.
The programme contributes to many of the National Performance Framework outcomes and key government policy aspirations such as the 20 minute neighbourhood concept. To reduce inequalities the programme needs to support our most vulnerable and deprived communities and make sure they are supported and gain the most. The programme aims to stimulate and support action at local, network and national level. It will initially support six communities in Alloa, Ayr, Dunoon, Clydebank, Fraserburgh and Rutherglen as well as a network of local partnerships and national leaders to share learning.
