The re-opening of the Glasgow Club North Woodside is a boost for residents. I am very grateful that the oldest public swimming baths in Glasgow has opened its doors for swimming, and workout classes in the fitness studio and gym.
This week, I found the new wildflower meadow in full bloom at the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum. This has been supported by RSPB Scotland and Conservation Volunteers to encourage small mammals, birds, pollinators, invertebrates and a wide range of plant species.
Today, there was an opening event held at the Claypits Local Nature Reserve, on the Forth and Clyde Canal. I attended to join in the celebrations and heard from various people involved from local groups e.g. Butterfly Conservation, Froglife, Youth Canal Forum, and Queens Cross Housing Association.
The segregated cycle lane on Garscube Road has been installed between St. Georges Road and Hinshaw Street in recent weeks.
There is a significant improvement in safety for cyclists travelling to and from the Woodside Health and Social Care Centre. I hope that there will be more people will be encouraged to take up cycling as a result of the cycling infrastructure investment in this area.
During July, I have been enjoying regular walks within the North Kelvin area. The stairway between Melrose Gardens and Kelvinside Gardens East is a viewpoint with beautiful flowers established by the Dear Green Flower Farm.
