Document summary
This report gathers learning from the event series ‘Exploring Scotland’s 20-minute neighbourhoods’ hosted by the Health and Social Care Academy, a programme of the Health and Social Care Alliance Scotland (ALLIANCE), in partnership with Disability Equality Scotland (DES) and Mobility and Access Committee for Scotland (MACS). The purpose of the series was to explore the benefits and challenges of a 20-minute neighbourhood and viewed this concept through the lens of inclusion, diversity, and accessibility. The 20-minute concept has gained attention internationally and has been developed in cities such as Melbourne, Portland and Paris. The concept looks at having all your basic needs – health and social care, shops, work hubs, places to socialise – met within a 20-minute walk, wheel or cycle from where you live.
