A GAMES LEGACY FOR GLASGOW - a catalyst for social change

On Monday 5 October 2009, the Glasgow Centre for Population Health and Glasgow City Council hosted a seminar to consider the legacy that the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games will leave. 

Bruce Dewar, Chief Executive Officer of 2010 Legacies Now (a not for profit society committed to creating sustainable legacies) was the key note speaker, describing to delegates the sustainable legacy plans for the 2010 Winter Olympics and Paralympic and how these are focused on being a catalyst for social change in Vancouver, BC, Canada. 

Councillor Steven Purcell, Leader of Glasgow City Council, also spoke at this event, focusing on his vision for a lasting 'people' legacy from the 2014 Commonwealth Games.
