What the petition asks
Riverside Hall has been providing a service for the people of Govan for nearly 40 years. We are open 7 days a week from 9am to 9pm and have over 40 clubs, groups and self help organisations using our hall.
The Riverside hall recently denied funding from Glasgow city council's newly established ( community fund ),
Our 3 members of staff will lose their jobs on the 30th September but have agreed to work voluntary to give us enough time to find alternative funds or reverse the councils decision,
We would obliged if you would sign our petition to support our community hall and community
Thank You
D.Paterson
