A city spot with 'the best view of Glasgow' is delighted to get national recognition.
Staff at the Hamiltonhill Claypits in North Glasgow are thrilled to have been chosen to be a part of the Running Out Of Time relay race across Great Britain.
For the Scottish part of the journey, volunteers will run, cycle, walk and wheel from Caol to Edinburgh.Julieanne Levett, community development manager, said:"We couldn’t believe that a park in Hamiltonhill and Possilpark would be chosen for such a national event.“We have invited the community to come along, take pictures and watch the baton exchange.
“If you were to walk around here, you maybe wouldn't even know we were here even though there are five entrances. Some people still don’t realise there is a nature reserve here.and well-being, to tackle social isolation, allow access to a greenspace and it lets communities disconnected by the canal feel connected.
“Despite being only five minutes away from the city, we have lots of unusual breeds of birds and animals.
