Glasgow Young People's Survey 2003
MORI Scotland was commissioned by Glasgow City Council, Strathclyde Police and Glasgow Alliance to conduct research among young people in Glasgow to see what they do, like and dislike about the city, and what their priorities are for the future. Most young people are satisfied with their area as a place to live (57%). They particularly like to live near their friends and be able to visit them on a regular basis. There is, however, a sense that there is little for young people 'to do' in their communities, resulting in time spent hanging around. If the Council is to do more to help young people, they would particularly like more local cinemas and bowling alleys (for example) and more leisure and sports facilities.
