Views of Health in Glasgow
Originally, produced for an international audience at a conference in Pittsburgh, USA, this film provides insights on health concerns and beliefs drawn from interviews with Glaswegians themselves and with a group of health experts.
In the film members of the public are asked a series of questions about health:
How do you feel Glasgow has changed in your life time?
What do you think has been getting better and what has been getting worse in terms of health?
Do you think there are different health problems in different communities across Glasgow?
Three experts in the field of health and health inequalities comment on:
- the major health trends in Glasgow in the last 20 years
- what is different about Glasgow’s health challenge from those of other areas
- actions being taken to improve health and wellbeing in the city
- the major threats or health issues in Glasgow in the next 50 years
- the most important things that have been learnt about how to improve Glasgow’s health
