| About us | 3rd Blantyre Community Group (3BCG) was established as a SCIO in May 2024 to lead the community asset transfer (CAT) of High Blantyre Hall, aiming to bring a vital community space back into use for the benefit of local residents. We received the keys to the building in October 2024 and have since been working to make the space accessible and welcoming for all. Due to neglect, the hall requires some internal and external repair work, which we plan to carry out over the coming months thanks to funding we have secured. These repairs will ensure the hall is safe, comfortable, fit for purpose and more sustainable for future generations. |
| Our Wish | Outdoor planters Thanks to funding already secured, our hall is about to undergo a major internal refurbishment. Unfortunately, we don’t yet have the resources to ensure the outside space reflects the improvements being made indoors. We are seeking donations of outdoor planters to enhance our external green space, helping it look welcoming and well cared for. As well as improving the appearance of the hall, the planters would offer the Scout group a valuable opportunity to involve young people in planning, planting and caring for seasonal plants, supporting learning, teamwork and pride in their environment. |
