Household composition
A broad view of household types in this constituency. Project Open Gov uses the four broad groups supplied by the Commons Library so the presentation remains consistent across the UK.
40,271 householdsCensus 2022
One-person households29.2% · 11,772 households
Families with dependent children27.9% · 11,223 households
Other single-family households41.5% · 16,700 households
Other household types1.4% · 576 households
Household-composition figures come from the Commons Library constituency dataset. The source uses census data and Project Open Gov displays its broad household groups rather than attempting to harmonise the detailed categories itself. View household-composition source ↗
Disability and day-to-day activities
The source records whether day-to-day activities are limited and uses separate person-level tables for England & Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
95,376 people in the source baseCensus 2022Source comparison: Scotland
Day-to-day activities limited a lot8.7% · 8,251 people
Day-to-day activities limited a little11.9% · 11,385 people
Non-disabled79.4% · 75,740 people
Comparison note: the workbook uses different source terminology across the UK: England & Wales uses “Disabled under the Equality Act”, while Scotland and Northern Ireland use “Disabled” / “Non-disabled”. Project Open Gov therefore preserves the source categories and does not present them as one single like-for-like UK legal definition.
Disability figures come from the Commons Library constituency workbook. This profile uses the person-level tables only; the workbook also contains separate household-level disability tables which are not used here. View disability source ↗

Material Narratives: New Work in Contemporary Jewellery
Grant to Individual
£7,488
Creative Scotland · Arts
About this award
In 2027 I'll take part in Vanilla Ink CIC's INKubator, a ten-month structured programme in contemporary jewellery. It offers advanced technical skills, studio access, mentorship and critical peer dialogue, leading to a public exhibition. This project deepens my 25-year practice in narrative and socially engaged art through a medium that is material and grounded. The impacts of my work have happened in places largely inaccessible to me; changed internal states, shifted perspectives, conversations in rooms I'm not in. Jewellery is something I can witness moving through the world whilst knowing it also has the potential to invite connection, spark conversation and make change. The INKubator will give me the deeper skills I need - wax carving, casting, stone setting - to match the ambition of a practice that is out in the world and growing. My aim is to create work that invites recognition and connection, while broadening who and what contemporary jewellery in Scotland represents.

Kirsteen Harvey - 4 New Single Recordings and Release
Grant to Individual
£4,011
Creative Scotland · Arts
About this award
This project will see the recording and release of 4 brand new singles from rising Scottish singer-songwriter Kirsteen Harvey. Working at Chem19 Studios in Blantyre with engineer and producer Jamie Savage, Kirsteen will be taking 4 of her newest and unreleased songs into the studio to create professional recordings of them, which will be full band productions, featuring some of Scotland incredible session musicians. From mid-late summer 2026, the tracks will then be released as singles with Glasgow Based distributor EmuBands, and act as the next run of works from the Scottish artist. Based on the successes of Kirsteen's self-funded debut 'Unpredictable' E.P (Dec 2023), 'Wee Tunes from Home' E.P (March 2024) and creative Scotland funded E.P 'Senses' (July 2025), these new singles will act as the next chapter of Kirsteens musical endeavours, and allow her to remain as an active artist in the industry with a steady release plan, that will span over 7 to 8 months.
