Laura Savage, Arlene Callan and Alistair Kerr had a fantastic meeting with Minister Tom Arthur today who is the Minister for Employment and Investment, where we discussed a range of strategic topics including community wealth, supported employment, and the importance of moving disadvantaged and disabled individuals into the workforce. They also explored ways to engage economically inactive people and highlighted how social value and community wealth play a crucial role in making these initiatives successful. We can't wait to see how these discussions continue to play out in 2025.

What an incredible year it’s been for our Let's Talk group! Despite the fog and chill, last week our group embraced the winter weather with a walk in the park, making the most of the season. ❄️ Yesterday marked the final outing of the year with a visit to the stunning Glasgow Cathedral, followed by a festive Christmas lunch back at the office. It was the perfect way to celebrate the end of a fantastic year together! This year, the group has explored 66 locations across Glasgow, creating lasting memories, and experiencing all the city has to offer. A big thank you to everyone who has participated in these adventures, we look forward to even more exciting outings in 2025! 🥂 #LetsTalkGroup #FairStartScotland #PeoplePlus #Glasgow
