The Central & West area is an aggregation of the Council wards of Partick West, Hillhead and Anderston/City. It includes many distinct communities including Anniesland, Jordanhill, Whiteinch, Broomhill, Partick, Hyndland, Hillhead, Woodlands, Yorkhill, Anderston, and the City Centre area. The population of the entire area is 82,500, or over 14% of the total city population. This makes it the largest local CPP in the City by population size.
 
Together with the West  local CPP, it forms the larger West Strategic Planning area. The West area is served locally by a dedicated team of support staff from the Community Planning section of Glasgow City Council. 
 
This section reports on the work of the Central & West local Community Planning Partnership and the decision making of the local Board.
