Share your Memories of Drylaw

As we approach Drylaw Neighbourhood Centre’s 30th Birthday next year, we’re taking a moment to reflect on the vibrant history of our community.

We’re reaching out to you, our friends and neighbours, to help us celebrate this milestone by sharing your cherished memories of Drylaw & Telford over the years.

Whether it’s a story from the early days, a favourite event, or a simple moment that captures the spirit of our community, we’d love to hear it. Your memories, old or new, are an important part of what makes this place so special.

Please join us in preserving and celebrating our shared history by sharing your stories with us!

Get in touch if you’d like more information, or just pop along to one of the sessions!

Reminiscence Sessions are starting on Monday – 19th August!

Come along for a blether and help us build our memory book of Drylaw and Telford. This group is open to anyone with a connection to Drylaw and Telford, whether you have lived there your whole life, just arrived or have a different connection to the area.

No need to book, just pop in!

11am – 12:30pm

19th August

Refreshments and a free lunch is provided.

LIFTFEST

17 JULY FROM 12 – 4pm at AT MUIRHOUSE MILLENNIUM CENTRE

Liftfest was the idea of our fab volunteers Tyler, Stacey and Wendy – they organised everything from asking for donations, organising the band, wee singer, DJ, and food donations.

Everything will be priced cheaply and affordable.

There will be table sales in the hall and lots going on outside

We would like to be able to supply the kids with either free cartons of juice or free diluting juice so if any nice person wants to donate cartons of juice or diluting juice and cups we would really appreciate it.

This has al been organised on a very low budget as everyone knows money is tight but the volunteers wanted to have something in Muirhouse for the families, the kids and their community.

Well done everyone involved in planning this day

I’m dreading to see what they have planned for me but whatever it is I’m sure they will all enjoy taking the mick out off the CEO!

Look forward to seeing you all on the 17th July.
