The African Caribbean Centre for Cultural Heritage.

The African and Caribbean Network received planning permission in February 2010 (see Evening Times report March 15th 2010) to build an African Caribbean Centre at 66/68 Osborne St in Glasgow's Merchant City. A community centre for the 40+ A&CN groups in Glasgow, it will cost more than £400,000 to refurbish. We will receive £50,000 in Townscape Heritage Initiative and Glasgow City Council grants to restore the shop-front, side doors and windows during September 2010 SEE THE PLANS
