Shelter Scotland has relocated its Glasgow Community Hub facility to another premises in the city.

The charity has established its new home at 116 Osborne Street after spending 11 years at Sauchiehall Street.

Graeme Brown, Director of Shelter Scotland, said as well as being more modern and cost-effective, the new premises is more accessible to the people in need of help.

"This move shows our ongoing commitment to helping the people of Glasgow and Scotland with housing, homelessness and money and debt advice for as long as we are needed," he said.


Sharon Berrie, Shelter Scotland Glasgow Community Hub Manager, added: "Our new Glasgow Community Hub opens against a backdrop of increased numbers of people sleeping rough, more people needing crisis grants and a drastic lack of truly affordable housing across the city and Scotland as a whole.

"For many people times are hard and their homes are under threat, especially in light of harsh welfare reforms, stagnant wages and insecure jobs which are leaving many more people in need of our services.

"For those who do need our help, our team is on hand to do whatever we can to help not only the people of Glasgow, but everyone in Scotland who may need our expert advice services."
