Five schools from Glasgow were invited to The Lighthouse, Glasgow, to share the views of young people on issues to do with food. The young people took part in The Glasgow Game, based on The Understanding Glasgow website which identifies twelve dimensions of life in Glasgow. These aspects are then used to initiate discussion around the key trends, concerns and differences that could be made to Glasgow.

On the 21st May 2013, the Glasgow Centre for Population Health held a seminar to consider the findings of a new study on the health economic benefits of cycle commuting in Glasgow. The study looked at the benefits for Glasgow residents cycling into Glasgow City Centre on a daily basis and found that in 2012 the annual benefit was around £4 million. This is likely to be an underestimate as the analysis does not take account of reduced illness and other health benefits conferred by cycling.
