Whilst at Broomhill Community Hub on the 02/12/2024 several the following points were raised:
- There are too many shops commissioned to sell vapes in Greenock Town Centre, including several vape shops in and around West Blackhall Street.
- There is too much abandoned or derelict housing/buildings stock across Inverclyde which could be repurposed for the homeless.
- Concerns were raised around female safety near the Holiday Inn Express where they said they felt intimidated by groups of males congregating on the water front.
- One attendee raised concerns around lack of home help type assistance for the elderly in Inverclyde.

Young people would also speak to their MSYP.
