Evidence snapshot for Glasgow
Glasgow has hosted several digital inclusion initiatives targeting different populations. Gorbals Digital Inclusion reached 5,000 of 8,000 people in its target group who improved ICT skills, with 150 finding employment, while Click & Connect centres across Scottish communities including Glasgow reported that tenants using internet shopping saved an average of £187. Achieve Digital supported 180 at-risk young people aged 13-16 with 25% placed into digital work experience, and Queens Cross Housing Association and Glasgow Kelvin College engaged up to 175 young people aged 9-16 from disadvantaged North Glasgow areas in computing clubs and hands-on digital skills activities. These practices demonstrate sustained effort in digital skills and access across age groups, though the evidence is descriptive and self-reported rather than independently verified.
