Scottish Government Community Recovery Funding enables us to maintain high standards of hygiene to ensure public safety including provision of hand sanitising stations and installation of easy to clean surfaces.

A spokesperson for Caldwell Halls Trust said: “Funding from East Dunbartonshire Council Community Grants Scheme has contributed to the running costs of the building.

"This is welcome, as we have had to cancel several lets over thepast year as well as our regular events, which are important fundraisers.

"The halls have remained open throughout the Covid lockdown period for essential services.
