Only 21 days to go until we deliver our petition to the Scottish Government asking them to ‘call in’ the New City Vision planning application to build on North Kelvin Meadow and The Children’s Wood. Please sign our petition and share it with 5 friends.
When we moved back to Germany last summer, we celebrated our farewell party in the Meadow, because it is one of the places we were happiest at. The only place in Glasgow I could let my children run wild and also a great meeting point for friends and neighbours. I hope it stays wild for many more happy memories.
