Kingsway Court Health & Wellbeing Centre are a community development centre set up by local people for local people to help improve the quality of our life and our community. Based in Scotstounhill / Garscadden – Ward 13 of Glasgow area our vision is one of Proud, Capable, and Confident multi-cultural community. Our mission is to build social capital within the community. W we believe increasing people’s confidence, esteem, sense of connectedness and belonging is likely to be the most effective contribution our organisation can make to addressing health inequalities and improving health & wellbeing within the community.
Reason for applying to DiH
We recognise the importance of social media and web development as a highly effective aid to connect to local people, and inform them of relevant events in the Centre but we lack the capacity to deliver on this key aspect of communication.
