Scaffolding at Glasgow's Ruchill Community Centre costing tens of thousands

The total amount of money spent on scaffolding to support Ruchill Community Centre since February is £18,000, a spokesman for Glasgow Life has confirmed.

During last week’s full council meeting, Labour councillor Fiona Higgins said she had been advised that the scaffolding was costing £18,000 per week but the charity organisation has since apologised for the recent “error in communication”.

Members were also informed that more than £600,000 was needed to repair the roof and that the centre would remain closed to the public in the meantime.
