After weeks of collecting bottles, our Monday Night Hub Club turned them into bird feeders for the garden and local spaces.

Games, crafts, karaoke and a big team game rounded off another brilliant Monday at Turf.

And they’re off! 🚌 Our Neighbourhood Natter group is heading to Helensburgh today for lunch and laughs by the sea.
This trip was made possible by the group themselves, taking ownership and contributing to make it happen.
Connection in action 💛 #ConnectLearnGrow #BecauseofCLD

It was great having @marionacldsc from the @cldstandards council along to our Neighbourhood Hub this week to talk all things community learning and development and the plans for us going forward in the community. #BecauseofCLD #investinyouthwork #youthworkchangeslives

After 8 amazing years, we say see you later to Hayley one of our first ever volunteers since Turf began in 2017. From crafts and games to Lazer tag and being a listening ear she’s done it all!

Thanks for your energy & support.

Places available on the Community Education course. If you have an interest in youth work, adult & family learning or empowering communities then this is a brilliant course to gain a formal qualification that equips you with the knowledge and understanding of CLD #becauseofCLD

[The Youth Work Buzz @youthworkhive]

UWS has spaces left across all years on their Community Education Course. This will suit anyone who is either new to ComEd or a well experienced practitioner who would like a qualification. 40% is practice learning so if you are working placement can be in your existing job....

Looking forward to working in partnership with the team @TheSoundLab_Gla

Many thanks to Stacey & her amazing at @TurfYService, including @SNPelainemcs for welcoming me today.
Turf supports young people, adults, & families in the Southside of Glasgow. It was great to join their weekly Neighbourhood Natter and hear about how Turf has helped each of them

Unfortunately, not a win for us last night at the Glasgow Times Community Champion Awards, however, our team had a great night spending time with lots of finalists and other great community projects taking place across Glasgow. We proud to be located in such an amazing city.

Was great to have officers in engaging with our young people and building positive, meaningful relationships. More than welcome anytime #youthworkchangeslives #BecauseofCLD #investinyouthwork #Diversionaryyouthwork

[Police Scotland Greater Glasgow @PSOSGreaterGlas]

Last night, community officers stopped by @TurfYService Cardonald for their Friday Night Drop in. Officers were inundated with questions and had a lot of fun engaging with these young people and even challenging them to a game of pool. 🎱#YouthWorkChangesLives #YouthDiversion

[Turf Youth & Community Project @TurfYService]

We topped our numbers this week, 65 young people attending our Friday Night Drop In…
We’re going to need a bigger boat !!
