• Save Woodside Halls
    Woodside Halls provide valuable space for community groups to meet, be it Yoga, Kung Fu, dance, Capoeira, meetings, AA, tango, creative art therapy.... the list goes on. All of these activities rely on cheap hall hire. As we come out of the pandemic, mental and physical health support is proving to be vital, and being able to attend classes could mean a lifeline to many. In addition, Woodside Halls are used as rehearsal spaces for many groups and are vital to the recovery of Glasgow's Cultural scene.

  • Save our Services in Glasgow
    Glasgow City Council and Glasgow Life cannot be allowed to ravage our city’s heritage. These services are not a luxury, they are at the heart of any cohesive community. Our community assets should not be regarded as a cost to the public purse but an investment in the health and wellbeing of our community for generations to come. Glasgow says No. We will fight these cuts. OUR CULTURE! OUR HERITAGE! OUR SERVICES! OUR FUTURE! Below is a list of public assets that are vulnerable to closure. These services belong to the People of Glasgow and in a post-Covid world their continued existence will be crucial to improving the quality of life of the city's population. The list so far includes: Barmulloch Library Couper Institute Library Gallery of Modern Art Library Maryhill Library Whiteinch Library Balgrayhill Community Centre Couper Institute Hall Garrowhill Community Centre Geoff Shaw Community Centre Langside Halls Molendinar Community Centre Pollokshields Community Centre Ruchill Community Centre Shettleston Community Centre Tollcross Community Centre Woodside Hall Provand’s Lordship Scotland Street School Museum and Janitor’s House St Mungo’s Museum Alexandra Park Golf Course Bellahouston Bowls Bellahouston Pitch and Putt Caldercuilt Playing Fields Castlemilk Bowls Cathkin Pitch Drumchapel Bowls Glasgow Club Petershill Glasgow Club Yoker Glasgow National Hockey Centre Glenconner Park Greenfield Park and Football Pavilion Halgreen Avenue Playing Fields Hogganfield Pitch and Putt Ibrox Football Centre James Lyndsey Memorial Park Pitches Kelso Street Pitch King George V Playing Fields King George’s Field Knightswood Pitch and Putt Linn Park Golf Course Lister Street Bowls Lochend Football Centre Maryhill Bowls Maryhill Tennis Mount Vernon Football Pitch Netherpollok Playing Fields Netherton Bowling Green Netherton Pitches and Pavilion Penilee Secondary School Pitch Peterson Park Pitches Queen’s Park Pitch and Putt Queen’s Park Bowls Ruchill Golf Course Scotstoun Sports Campus Outdoor Hall Springburn Bowls Victoria Park Bowls Victoria Park Rugby Pitches Victoria Park Tennis

  • Save Ackhurst Lodge Chorley
    The flooding has gone from a thirty year event to three times just this season and the grade 2 listed building was flooded to the eaves on two occasions. This will if allowed to continue destroy the structure of the well loved historical building

  • Save West Kilbride Library
    Our very attractive Library Building overlooks the village of West Kilbride and has stunning views across to the hills. Our Library is one of the most well used in North Ayrshire and has the potential to increase its service by developing links with other creative and educational projects. The IT suite was in constant use. Attendance at a public consultation drew one of the largest oppositions in the Local Authority. This is one of the most unpopular moves suggested by the Council and compares with their disastrous decision to close public toilets and swing parks - both of which are now viewed by communities as a complete mistake.

  • We don't want the Super League
    "Football is nothing without fans" It is the beautiful game and steeped in history and culture. It is a game full of stories of the 'little team' overcoming the odds to win. Young girls and boys dream of growing up to play for their hometown club, to lift the FA Cup, or winning their first cap for their National team. Leicester City won the hearts of the nation (and even the world) when they went from the brink of relegation to Premier League champions and playing in the Champions League. A story that will be told for generations to come. The 'European Super League' threatens all of this. The proposal comes from the millionaire and billionaire owners who now run our beloved clubs. They have no respect for the fans and the long history of the game. Why are they doing this? For one reason alone - to make more money. This is a shameful move and will rip the heart out of football.

  • UK to recognise its 1 million + Spanish & Portuguese speakers.
    Latin; Iberian; Hispanic; Lusophone; South/Central or Native American; Spanish; Portuguese; Brazilian; Luso-African and Hispanic or Luso Asian peoples together are the UK's largest ethnolinguistic minority. They do not want to be considered as “others”, but as one block as happens now within the Greater London Authority, and also in the USA where 60 million of them have an official heritage month to celebrate their rich culture and contributions, and can tick a special census category as well as their own national identity. According to official data from the ONS, HO and FO there are more than 1 million UK residents born in Ibero America and the Spanish and Portuguese speaking nations without counting their descendents. They constitute a very significant community who has been contributing to Britain from many centuries and they deserved to be recognized in all monitoring forms and having a History Month.

  • Utilising the Square in Petersfield for bars/restaurants
    It would encourage more locals to eat and drink out and sit outside whatever the weather. And could put Petersfield on the map for tourists as a nice place to stay and to eat out.

  • SAVE THE CAMERON CENTRE
    SAVE THE CAMERON CENTRE We are residents of Lockleaze and concerned supporters who call for the Cameron Centre Community building owned by Bristol City Council and run by Lockleaze Neighbourhood Trust to be saved from demolition to make way for 50 flats. The Cameron Centre is a much loved community hall, library and kitchen offering a home to a packed and varied programme of users from Tai Kwondo to jumble sales, tea dances, playgroups, birthday parties, ukulele groups, bingo nights, lego club, religious services, political groups and polling station needs, public meetings and consultations to name just a few. All at affordable rates that result in a full timetable of bookings. It is a place for people of all ages, faiths, interests and needs to come together. It is a truly inclusive and affordable venue and there is no other large community space - at all - in the whole of Lockleaze which is an area very poorly served for meeting places. There are few shops, no pubs or cafes and the number of residents is due to steeply increase with 25 housing development sites planned across Lockleaze. It would be a massive loss to the area if it was demolished, not to mention a wasteful destruction of a perfectly good building that needs a small investment to update it a little. With a parquet floor and old school serving hatch it is built for purpose and build to last. Connecting doors to the library build community co operation, and the spacious kitchen is a sociable place to volunteer. Now is a time (post Covid) when our Community spaces are needed more than ever, and to deprive the area of this thriving centre is a massive mistake. Taking into consideration the vast housebuilding plans that are happening across this area more community spaces are now needed, not less. Although BCC has suggested that community facilities will be part of the 50 home development on this site, a BCC representative told us that plans are for a library and maybe a cafe. No replacement large multi-purpose hall is on the cards and current plans do not begin to compensate for the loss of this vital community building. We call for BCC to scrap its plans and instead invest and protect this essential Community building.

  • Ron and the street cleaners of Windsor
    The cleaners we have are good and loyal. We normally have 7 million visitors per year. These redundancies are short term thinking and it would be wrong to let people like Mr Ron Stone go. He's 71 and starts at 6:30am each day. He loves his job and we love him for all that he does, rain or shine, he works hard and we have a lovely town.

  • Renaming the Sports field in honour of Owen Fitzpatrick
    Owen contributed so much to the village and set up the youth football team that ran for 7 years and was a massive part of a lot of people’s lives. Owen was a very generous man that gave up a lot of his time to help a lot of young boys in and around the village and this would be a great way to remember him by.
