Glasgow Group Newsletter November 2020 Glasgow Group Newsletter November 2020 [email protected] Festive Greetings to all of our members. The last newsletter of the year and there is a Challenge for YOU. Glasgow Ramblers Winter Challenge The challenge is to walk or cycle the parks and green spaces in Glasgow or just over the boundary. The attachment lists 60 spaces but more can be added just inform the walk the parks team by emailing your suggestion to [email protected] If we could collect information about our parks and how they could be linked to make l o n g e r walks then this would be an useful project for these times when we are not to travel too far from home but aim to stay active. WHEN Between 1st December 2020 and 28th February 2021 HOW After you have visited a park or green space, email the team, [email protected] Include the date, photo of each separate park or greenspace, and whether a visit is warranted. Please note that your photo may go on twitter or our website. If there are identifiable people in your photo, please check with them that they are willing to have the photo shared. WITH The visit could be done on your own, with friends or as part of a led walk with 1 of our walk leaders. Current restrictions mean that groups of up to 6 people can meet but with a maximum of 2 households. Glasgow Ramblers organised led walks can have more because the organisation is following the protocols & guidelines laid down by Ramblers Scotland,Sport Scotland which adhere to Government Regulations. If there is a walk that you are keen to do but would like some company, we are setting up a Whats App group to connect people You might also be happy to join a fellow member and visit a park unknown to you. If you are interested in adding you name to this group then email [email protected] Most of the parks are listed with their locations on www.mypark.scot On the Glasgow Council's website, you will find information about the main parks www.glasgow.gov.uk - search Parks and Gardens There is another list on www.peoplemakeglasgow.com under 'things to do' Putting a parks name into a search engine will also bring up more information. Also online maps such as Google may give some ideas of how to connect nearby green spaces. There are already a few circular walks linking green spaces. Magnificent 11 Cathcart, White Cart Walkway, Linn Park and Cathcart Cemeteries Dawsholm, Garscube Estate, Cairnhill Woods Botanics, Childrens Wood, Ruchill, Claypits LNR Eastfield, Springburn, Robroyston, Broomfield Park, Petershill park, Sighthill Cemetery Hopefully all of these and more will be led by a volunteer during the Winter Challenge. Keep an eye on our website. www.glasgowramblers.org.uk This Challenge has been set by the wonderful team of Kirstie, Catherine V, Sandra, Catherine W. They await your photos and emails. UPDATE on Ramblers Group Walks Our Covid secure group led walks remain exempt from Rule of Six under all Scottish Government protection levels. However if you live in Level 3 and 4 areas you must NOT travel outside your area at all for a Ramblers group walk including during the walk itself. Members split across different Level 3 and 4 areas should still only walk with members from their own local authority. For informal, non Ramblers walks: The Rule of Six still applies. If you live in Level 3 or 4 you can not meet with walkers from different areas. You can travel up to 5 miles outside your boundary for walks, but do not stop for petrol, coffee, or any other reason. In addition you can walk beyond your boundary providing your walk starts and finishes inside. Nobody should share cars with other households. All details are on Ramblers Scotland website and the Scottish Government website. GLASGOW GROUP have walks organised for December. Remember to keep Checking our Website.

  • GLASGOW WEST END U3A January 2021 Newsletter
    GLASGOW WEST END U3A January 2021 Newsletter Dear All Happy New Year to you all. 2021 has got off to a shaky start but hopefully it will improve. We just want a vaccine… The weather has been lovely though a bit treacherous underfoot in places. The hospital grounds at Gartnavel Royal have been well-gritted and are ideal for a sunny winter walk. Bingham’s Pond provided much entertainment for children when most of it was frozen. Bit too much excitement for me, I prefer to be on firmer ground. GWEU3A continues to be busy on Zoom/Facebook/WhatsApp. We had a lovely Christmas Event by Fool’s Gold in December which all enjoyed. The David Hume Institute Focus Group on what we found important to happiness during lockdown, leading on to Equality and Fairness, proved very popular and stimulating. A number of you walked for Shelter with a pal in December which was worthwhile exercise. Coffee and Chat continues to be popular and a good way to meet members. The small groups are continuing very well with a new French group starting up. Edith Fleming is getting musicians together to play and listen to classical music. If you wish to join them please indicate through the website in the usual way. After the Focus Group a number of people expressed an interest in being part of a Current Affairs Group. This would require members to be unbiased politically, and would require a structure and format a bit like the Focus group. If you are interested in further discussion about such a group please email me at [email protected] and I will try to facilitate it.
