The Glasgow Experience has a link between deprivation and health. In the UK Glasgow is not the only place that is experiencing both high levels of deprivation and poor health. Although Scotland is ranked the most unhealthy country in the UK. This document have two main objectives, one being analysing if there is evidence towards a Glasgow effect and comparing Glasgow with other cities to evaluate the measure of deprivation and poor health. The second one being developing data that co-insides with small areas in the three cities, that are Glasgow, Liverpool and Manchester being almost identical with deprivation in 2005 as almost a quarter of the population of the total population is classed as having a deprived income. Due to this Glasgow has a higher rate of deaths resulting in 15% more than any other cities.

Scotland is branded for many things which play a part in the decreasing health making diets very poor in many cities such as Glasgow. Such things we are branded for is, fried food such as the famous fried mars bar, irn-bru, shortbread as well as fast foods being so accessible and so on, all of these being having there effects on poor the diet people have making their health dwindle.

In reading this document I would say that Scotland is not healthy due to what we are known for, although I don’t think it was all parts of Scotland that are unhealthy but overall it would be a lie to say we are healthy.
