Everyone knows the statistics - we drink more, smoke more and take less exercise than almost anywhere else in Europe. We have alarmingly high rates of heart disease, cancer, diabetes and strokes.

But our Glas-goals campaign aims to change that, setting ambitious, healthy targets for a healthy Glasgow.

The Evening Times has teamed up with a number of key partners including NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde, Culture and Sport Glasgow, Glasgow City Council and Glasgow Housing Association.

And we'll be working with other key groups including Marie Curie Cancer Care and Sport Relief to help improve the health of every Glaswegian.

We will be targeting a series of health goals, including basic fitness, obesity, diet and smoking. We can help Glasgow stub out a million cigarettes, run or walk a million miles, lose hundreds of thousands of pounds off the city's waistlines.

We intend to raise the profile of the great projects - large and small - already tackling health issues across the city.

And throughout the year, we will be staging fun, informative health and fitness events.

Glas-goals is a campaign for everyone - all ages, all walks of life, all sections of the community, all corners of the city.

Working together - with our partners, with our communities and with our readers - we can make a better future for Glasgow.
