A Place to Grow

East Renfrewshire A Place to Grow (PDF, 5 MB) is East Renfrewshire Community Planning Partnership's new vision, which sets out our shared hopes and aspirations between now and 2040 so that East Renfrewshire is a place where everyone can flourish, thrive and grow.

This vision will provide a clear direction of travel for us over the next 15 years. 

Our intention is that by sharing this vision it will set us on a course where East Renfrewshire is a great place to grow up and to grow old, to live full and happy lives, to pursue our ambitions and to nurture thriving and inclusive communities.

A Place to Grow is built on three pillars that will be the foundation for all our strategic planning going forward.

The three pillars have been developed with our community planning partners and will drive the work of both the community planning partnership and the council over the next 15 years.

A Place to Grow sets the vision for 2040, which provides a future where:

• Our children and young people flourish: Every child and young person, regardless of background or circumstance, will fully flourish on their journey to adulthood.
• Our communities and places thrive: We will be an inclusive, connected and green place, with a fair, sustainable and healthy local economy, that our residents are proud to call home.
• We all live well: Everyone can live well at all stages of life and communities will be taking the lead in driving change for good health and wellbeing.
