Description

The Children’s Wood's aims are:

  • The advancement of education by
  1. Providing outdoor learning for children and their carers
  2. Organising public and schools events
  3. Working with schools and other organisations to educate about the benefits of learning and playing outside in nature.

 

  • The provision of recreational facility, or the organisation of recreational activities with the object of improving the conditions of life for persons for whom the facilities or activities are primarily intended, by:
  1. Preserving a woodland experience in the city so maintaining and protecting our local environment.
  2. Creating opportunities for children and the community to play outside in nature and meet each other by organising playgroups and events
  3. Developing space for participants to explore in a safe and secure outdoor environment for the benefit of the community and its cohesion

 

  • The advancement of citizenship or community development by:
  1. Training teachers and volunteers
  2. Working with the local community around North Kelvin Meadow in the nearby wards within City of Glasgow (geographically this covers those living predominantly in the Maryhill/Kelvin, Canal, and Hillhead wards of the city)
  3. Creating intergenerational opportunities and engaging with harder to reach groups through events and linking up with other groups within the community.
    The advancement of arts, heritage, culture or science by community projects and events
Covid-19 Specific Support

Tuesdays and Fridays at 11.30 am is our outdoor library time- come and get your books on these days.
(The books are for you to keep or pass on after you are done with them; we do not want them back. All books have been washed and sanitised before they end up in our 'library'. A lending system would be too complicated just now. Lucky you, you can keep the books!)
