Awards
We were finalists in the SCVO Charity of the Year Award 2021!
The team has redesigned hundreds of events and workshops to take them online, coordinated a Castlemilk-wide emergency response and created a Wellbeing Community Chest. It has improved services with a digital transformation strategy, formed a digital lending library with 270 devices and worked with various partners throughout the area to support people during the pandemic. These are only a few examples of what we have been involved in, the list goes on and on!
The Castlemilk Park Volunteers were also finalists for the Nature of Scotland Community Initiative Award!
"This award will go to an outstanding community-based initiative that clearly demonstrates what they have done for the benefit of nature. The project should be developed and led by the people it serves, acting as an inspiration to others and offering real value to the whole community."
The group really are amazing, local people who care for their greenspace, share their skills and have so much enthusiasm to learn and get involved. A huge well done and thank you to them! Castlemilk Park wouldn't be the same without you all!
