Carers’ Book Group
Carers meet regularly to choose a book to read at home and then meet to discuss their views on the book. The group aims to expand the carer’s choice of reading, enter into stimulating discussions and have fun at the same time.
Meetings are held on the last Monday of each month between 2:30pm – 4:30pm at the Clydebank Housing Association.

The group meets every Thursday between 10am – 12:30pm at Clydebank Library.
