Katy and Cllr Mary Paris joined local residents at the Cadder Gala Day festivities. After Mary opened the gala, they spoke to local residents and organisations in the community centre and braved the rain showers to see the ever popular climbing wall, new canoing event and the fairground rides.

Katy was joined by Robert Brown MSP and Cllrs Mary Paris & Kenneth Elder at the inaugural Friends of Old Station Park Gala Day. The Liberal Democrat stall proved popular, as did the free pizza. Katy commented:

“The day has clearly been a success, both in getting people to use the park and also to see the plans for its refurbishment. This is a great but underused space. Whether by cutting back the overgrown trees to increase visibility, fixing the paths or coming up with better suggestions for usage, it is important the the community has their say. My colleague, Cllr Elder will certainly be respresenting the views of residents as part of the FOSP committee. I was also delighted to win the top raffle prize of the FOSP cake. I will need to do a lot more campaigning out and about to work off the effects!”
