'Glaswegians are generous spirits' 🫶🏽❤️

A family-of-four from the Shawlands area have shown just how generous Glaswegians are after raising hundreds for a refugee charity.

Speaking with Glasgow Live, Gillian said: "We home educate the girls and are part of a book club where we read ‘The boy at the back of the class’. It’s about a wee boy from Syria who ends up in a school in London. Margot ran 12k over 10 days and Inés did a 12km row. The family have so far raised over £600 for Refuweegee.

"These refugees are leaving home and stepping into the unknown and that’s how desperate they are. They just don’t know if they are going to make it or where they are going to end up.
