A Renfrewshire councillor has called for more funding from the Scottish Government to be dished out to create activities for young people – in the wake of a deliberate blaze in Johnstone.
Councillor Alison Ann-Dowling was responding to reports of a fire that was started metres away from a petrol station in the town during the Easter holidays.
The incident took place behind the Morrisons garage in Johnstone on Wednesday, April 12 around 8pm.
