The Yard in Edinburgh is working with Glasgow Life to look into the feasibility of a Community Asset Transfer of Linn Park Adventure Playground. This is an incredibly exciting time for us, but they need your help.
The Yard is an Edinburgh based charity that works with disabled children and their families to provide them with fun, friendship, support and adventure. Currently we are most prominent in the east of Scotland, however we would like to try to support as many disabled children and their families as possible, and moving into Glasgow would help us to do that.
To secure the Community Asset Transfer of Linn Park we must demonstrate that other organisations and stakeholders in the area are happy and positive about this, which is where you come in.
We are holding our final informal consultation at The Wheatley Group on Wednesday 19th June at 3.30pm – 5pm, and would be delighted if yourself or someone else from your Organisation could come along and hear about this work and support it. Tea, coffee and biscuits will be provided!
If you are able to come please may you RSVP to linnpark@theyardscotland.org.uk .
If you are not able to come but still wish to support us, please may you email us with your views.
Thank you in advance for your support.
Kind Regards,
