Kaukab Stewart MSP & Alison Thewliss MP – Cost of Living Surgery 

Friday 24 February 2022  | 3 – 5 pm

You will be aware that the cost of living has risen dramatically over the last year and is hitting people across Glasgow hard. With this in mind, Kaukab and Alison would like to make sure that anyone who needs help has the support they require – this is why they are hosting a drop-in cost of living event.

Representatives from the following groups will be in attendance to support you, or anyone that requires it:

• Advice Direct Scotland;
• Home Energy Scotland;
• Family Fund;
• One Parent Families Scotland;
• Women’s Integration Network;
• Glasgow Communities;
• Age Scotland;
• Shelter Scotland;
• Skills Development Scotland;
• Castlemilk Law Centre;
• Glasgow Tool Library; and
• Foodbank Services.

In addition to these services, the Pyramid will also be providing information on some of the support available at the centre. This includes our cost-of-living small cash grants along with other practical support, a zero waste low cost shop, holiday clubs for children and other regular free/low cost events and activities.

Anderston Green Spaces – Community Orchard Tidy-Up & Fence-Making 

Wednesday 22 February | 3 – 5pm

Join us to tend to the new fruit trees that have been planted in the small green space at the corner of Elderslie St and William St. We’re going to make some fences to protect the young trees – as they become established in the garden.

Tools, gloves and cake provided – and everyone is welcome to join in!

The community orchard is a space for all Anderston residents to enjoy – and has been developed with Glasgow City Council Improving Green Spaces Fund.
