11 GLASGOW NORTH WEST CAB
BUREAU BACKGROUND & INSIGHTS
Glasgow North West Citizens Advice Bureau is an independent charity founded in 1981. We specialise in providing free, impartial and confidential information and advice services on issues ranging from debt, benefits, and welfare rights to consumer rights, finances and budgeting support.
The information and advice we give is compliant with standards set by the Scottish Government and Citizens’ Advice Scotland. Our services are available to everyone in our local communities. We aim to make them as accessible as possible by promoting equality and diversity, and by challenging discrimination.
We run personal, drop-in advice sessions on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings at our Bureau headquarters in Maryhill, as well as appointments for returning clients with complex cases. We also operate extensive outreach services, providing advice and information in local communities across North West Glasgow. The largest of these is based in Possilpark Library.
Our Bureau is one of the most progressive and dynamic advice and information services in the country. Our Bureau is made up of around 68% dedicated volunteers and supported with 17 staff members, and have a vibrant and highly-experienced Board of Trustees.
Collectively, the team has expertise in many areas relevant to our work, including welfare rights, immigration and asylum, languages & digital. Together we are working hard to achieve our aim of improving people’s lives by providing the information required to overcome challenges they face, and by influencing the development of policies and practices locally and nationally.
12 WOODLANDS COMMUNITY CAFE
BACKGROUND & INSIGHTS
Woodlands Community Café is a project of the Woodlands Community Development Trust and is approaching it’s 4th anniversary, having been founded in December 2013.
This free vegetarian community café takes place on Monday evenings, feeding an average of 60-70 people per week, with meals cooked using fresh ingredients including those grown in our own community garden. You can join us every Monday from 5.30 - 7.30pm at our Fred Paton Centre.
The strength of our community cafe lies in that there is no distinction between those providing the aid and those receiving it, all are actively encouraged to volunteer in our work. The food we serve is high quality, freshly prepared and of the same quality you would expect in an expensive restaurant. The café has a very welcoming atmosphere, with music workshops and performances adding to its ambience, contributing to is being a very positive place to visit & be part of.
By encouraging a healthy vegetarian diet, we are making permanent changes in people’s perception towards food. Our Café not only provides access to good, fresh and healthy food, it also enables communities from all backgrounds to socialise in a safe welcoming environment.
Volunteers who we train and support are gaining skills, confidence and self-esteem and our work has had a transformative effect on people attending.
In addition to our Monday cafe we provide meals at a weekly Homework Club and run regular cookery workshops both at the cafe and in partnership with other local organisations.
