Hello – some weather eh?!…
We’ve been excellently supported recently by Reid Kerr photography students at some of our events. To see their wonderful work click here:

The students are very professional – I can’t thank them enough.
Last week I had the privilege to present some information on Engage Renfrewshire to attendees at the Paisley South Housing Association AGM. Unfortunately it was a rather ‘dreich’ night weather wise for the AGM but those in attendance were in good voice.
The Association aims to provide quality, affordable homes and services throughout the south, west & town centre of Paisley, Foxbar and Glenburn. The Association are also involved in non-housing, “wider role” projects and services aimed to help local communities develop as sustainable, socially inclusive and economically vibrant places.
Those attending were very enthusiastic regards the impact of local community action and volunteering and I would like to thank them for their attention.

Yesterday I attended OSCR’s Meet the Charity Regulator event at the Abercorn Centre. I was delighted to be asked to speak at the ‘top-table’. It was a great turn-out and I think the vast majority felt it was an excellent event.
OSCR will be publishing the presentations and notes from the meeting on their website next week. Should the pilot events prove successful, it is likely that they will hold similar events in the area early next year.
OSCR’s Outreach Programme for Autumn 2012 can be accessed here.
