Our part of the city is home to a thriving cultural quarter, cutting-edge sports facilities, social enterprises and an urban nature reserve.

At what is still such a difficult time for many of us, we’ll be spending some time shining a light on the amazing industries and people that are part of our Co-op or based along the waterway.

First up, we have Karen Allan – a producer at the National Theatre of Scotland usually based at their Rockvilla headquarters right on the banks of the canal.

Watch her #GlasgowCanal story:

We hope you enjoy, are inspired and learnt something about Glasgow’s stretch of canal.

If you would like to tell your #GlasgowCanal story, please get in touch and we’ll share it.
