Sessions available at several Glasgow library locations.

Volunteer led Memories Scotland group sessions at Glasgow Libraries are an opportunity to reminisce and share memories about the past.

The group sessions offer a friendly and safe space for people to come together, connect with others, make new friends, learn and share information about the place they live, stimulate mental activity, increase their confidence and self-esteem, and enjoy conversations with other participants. 

Volunteers will support the group with facilitated social reminiscence – they will provide hot drinks, a listening ear, and a keen interest in storytelling and community heritage.
