Campaigners face an anxious wait to find out if their battle to rescue a valued hub at the heart of one of Glasgow’s most deprived areas has been successful.
Members of the Save Ruchill Community Centre group say they are 'full of hope’ that the much-loved building will be safeguarded after it was nominated for possible lifeline funding.
The centre on Bilsland Drive has been shut since March 2020, when it was closed due to the Covid-19 pandemic. “Tireless campaigning by locals to protect this site is hopefully on the brink of paying off. I’m hopeful the funding will be approved and the centre reopened for the people of Ruchill.” “A lot of people in this community will have to choose between heating and eating this winter. We’d like to see the doors open soon so that we can provide a warm haven for those in need.
