GCU Law Society are excited to announce that for the month of March, we will be hosting a raffle with donations going to a brand new charity doing exceptional work for Glasgow’s Community!
Glasgow Street Aid are a newly-registered charity providing medical and welfare assistance in Glasgow city centre on Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings from 7:30pm to midnight – situation dependent. Their aim is to take the pressure off our emergency services by providing urgent emergency care. They are a small team of first aiders and clinicians. They have been working throughout the pandemic and commonly deal with people experiencing homelessness, service users and youths. Over the last five months they have assisted over 180 people on the streets.
We are hoping to raise as much as possible to support Glasgow Street Aid in their goal of purchasing an ambulance and other essential medical equipment. They are a small charity, so every donation is greatly appreciated.
We have some exciting prizes lined up for the winners of the raffle which are not only unique, but also support some of Glasgow’s small, local businesses!
First prize will win:
- Homemade cookies and treats from Heather at Choosing Happy (Instagram: @choosinghappy_)
