The event was opened by chair and founder member of the Association, Anna Stuart MBE, who welcomed everyone to the day and gave a brief synopsis of the 40-year journey and the purpose of the Tenants’ Conference.

The conference offered tenants the opportunity to meet staff from each of the different departments, ask questions, and provide suggestions and ideas on the services Cassiltoun provides and what it could do to improve them or what services they would like introduced. The corporate team were also on hand to inform tenants about how they could become involved in the work of the Association including becoming a share member and board member.

The Association also provided a wide range of activities for tenants and their children to take part in. These included stand-up bingo, raffle, 1980s games with Glasgow Museums and the opportunity to meet owls with Owl Magic. There was also face painting, arts and crafts, outdoor games and plenty of tasty food and a 40th anniversary cake.

There were also opportunities to find out more about the work of the Community Advisory Panel, Youth Advisory Panel and other volunteering programmes and information on how to get involved in the extensive community programmes on offer at Castlemilk Stables.

A spokesperson for Cassiltoun said: “The event has provided invaluable feedback that will be taken forward ensuring that tenant participation is at the heart of what we do.”
