The Friends Of Cambuslang Group is a local group made up of residents throughout the surrounding areas of Cambuslang who have a keen interest in promoting the Park and making it a place that can be used not only by locals but by visitors to the area.

Since the first meeting we have held a variety of events from guided walks to Fun Days to a Halloween event and we intend to increase events as time goes on. We now have schools come along for Scavenger Hunts, Beastie Hunts and clean ups. To encourage youth activities in the park we had a Loud & Live event where local youth bands, some for the first time, had a spot on stage. This was co-ordinated by the local youth organisations with the support of the 'Friends'. A Teddy Bear Picnic was held for Love Your Parks week, this was organised in conjunction with the Cambuslang Park Strollers. In spring and Autumn we have a Clean Up & Planting day where we lift litter for an hour and then plant some bulbs. CHI (Community Health Initiative) have themed walks for children on a Sunday morning 11am. Find our next event on the news page.

We actively encourage anyone interested in becoming a Friend or anyone who has any facts, knowledge or ideas for the park to fill in our comments page and send this off to us. If you have been to any of our events we would also welcome feedback. comments page

We hope you enjoy looking at this site and that you will be encouraged to use this valuable community space whenever you get the chance.

We are always looking for volunteers to help at any of the events we hold for light and heavier tasks that need doing. If you could give some time please contact us at cambuslangpark(at)live.co.uk

Cambuslang Park spans 27 acres encompassing the contrast of open park land and the Borgie Glen, which is a steep tree lined ravine, containing a complex network of pathways. Not to mention a pond, sport pitches, woodland areas and the Bandstand, which is a natural amphitheatre.

The Park is truly unique and the Friends of Cambuslang Park actively encourage one and all to make the most of it.

The group plan to hold various events throughout the year to build on the success of the events that took place 2007. We will advertise events not only on this site but on other websites, the local press and the Community Matters newspapers and we look forward to seeing everyone then!

Friends of Cambuslang Park work closely with Land Services and Greenspace and the group would like to thank them for their continued help and support.

Added to this we have a comments page on this website and we encourage anyone who has old photos, memories or just general questions about the park to get in touch with us.
