“We’re all living through something extraordinary and more than ever we believe in the power of bringing communities together safely, particularly over the dark months.

“We’re delighted to confirm we’ll be bringing back the itison Pumpkin Fund, our community engagement initiative. Last year we donated over 1,000 tickets to families across the city and funded a much-needed bus for the kids at Highpark LCR. We’ll be doing the same this year with a new project and look forward to making sure that will GlasGLOW comes good!”
