Minutes:
The group gave consideration to a report which provided the
detail of current activities which fall under SOA Outcome 6: People live in safer and stronger
communities. These activities are
ongoing and will continue over the coming year.
It was noted that the Helensburgh and Lomond Health and Well Being fund had made a contribution of £2000.00 towards smoke alarm testing devices. Discussion followed on the seemingly disproportionate number of Home Fire Safety Visits (HFSVs) in the Helensburgh Central area and it was explained that this was as a result of heightened awareness of the usefulness of HFSVs in the local community following incidents It was also highlighted that the Grey Matters initiative actively encouraged people in Helensburgh Central to take up the offer of HFSVs.
Decision:
The group agreed to note the report.
