East Renfrewshire Council

Welcome to East Renfrewshire

We have built a reputation as one of the best performing councils in the country and in many areas our targets are set higher than the Scottish average.

Join East Renfrewshire and you become part of our success story and you will immediately be expected to continue our successes.

We regularly deliver the best services in Scotland and even when we don't reach our goal, we get up and try harder next time.

East Renfrewshire is a highly desirable place to live and work.

It is also an area of contrasts with some exceptionally wealthy areas and some of extreme poverty.

Getting the balance right between competing demands and delivering for the people of our area are the cornerstones of excellent service delivery.

Right on the doorstep is rural countryside, even closer the area is peppered with parks and open spaces that offer a range of leisure opportunities.
