Glasgow friends - like many, my 19 year old son is urgently looking for a room/flat share in the city. His course has already started, so the clock is ticking!
Any contacts / connections gratefully received.

Scotland’s first community-owned, passive-certified homes for affordable rent were created in Dumfries and Galloway by #NithValleyLeafTrust and @SoSCommHousing. Stunning & energy-efficient, it's a win-win for community and climate!

Congratulations to a local community that has put an empty building to great use, adding sustainable heating and insulation to a former hotel to create decent, affordable homes. It can be in the power of local people who understand their community to help meet its housing need.
