Who is involved? People who live in a Thriving Place area have a right to be involved and local services have a duty to improve the quality of life in the area. https://www.glasgowcpp.org.uk/index.aspx?articleid=24891 Thriving Places is about bringing people together to help improve the quality of life in the 10 neighbourhoods covered by the programme. The programme currently funds a Community Connector in each of the 10 neighbourhoods to bring local community groups, services and organisations together to address local priorities. Thriving Places was introduced in Parkhead, Dalmarnock and Camlachie in 2014 to help improve the quality of life of people who live and work here.
