Come for an exclusive look behind the scenes at our extraordinary, purpose fitted Medical and Welfare Centre! You’ll get an exclusive tour, meet members of our dedicated, specialist volunteer teams and hear about their inspiring experiences including how they have become steadfast support to both the local community and visitors to Glasgow alike.

Once again we have partnered with The Glasgow Science Centre and Glasgow University Anatomy Department to bring you both interactive and vintage anatomy models, plus there’ll be a mini exhibition of documentary photographs taken by Cameron Scott.

You’ll even get a chance to see inside our emergency ambulance and much more!

Situated in the heart of Union Street, our charity is situated in one of only two surviving category B-listed Victorian, classical style warehouses designed by W. Lochhead in 1855, for the famous Wylie & Lochhead.
