“Tell me about your  commitment”. Our successive meeting in Glasgow, I may say, was a fruitful event filled with workshops and intensely discussions. I should not forget the extra time dedicated to visit to The Hub Community Cafe
and a short walk but still around the University Compound.
I shall be proud to say that I had a unique chance to look at the busy City of Glasgow with its Strathclyde University in the
downtown and the Loch Lomond more up the country.
The visit to Glasgow had its main features; the heated  discussions related to voluntary activity at the Strathclyde 
University and exemplary voluntary work in the Community Centre. 
Thank you for having us in Glasgow.

Some of my impressions from the visit are enclosed in the presentation (ppt 2007) and I shall be grateful if you look at it.

On behalf of The Slupsk University of Theird Age I would like in few words to express our Thanks for a memorable days we spent in Glasgow.
Our stay in Glasgow, in connection with the project “Tell me about your commitment” was wonderful and therefore we thank you and  all of  your helpers for organizing the event.
Everything, from very beginning untill the morning of farewell was OK. We shall remember your hospitality.
The workshops we were hearing were very usuful in that sense that we  could learn a lot from them.They had told us  about the experiences the volunteers from another countries lived through, about the reasons for which they work as volunteers and about the people they are giving the hand to.
Our visit to the Hub Community Centre was delightful and the sound of music is in our ears even today. Thank you for this concert.Our thanks go to Ena Brown too for a splendid work She and Her team does at the Hub Community Cafe.
We are also thankful for the meeting in the Centre for “Lifelong Learning” at The Strathclyde University. We could learn a great deal about volunteering in Glasgow, about similarities and differences in between our countries.
The lectures were at the highest professional level and interesting for us after all.
The whole Programme of the Grundtvig Meeting was perfectionally lead out and executed- up to the mark!
We see the Glasgow Grundtvig Meeting examplary.
We wish you all the best.
With best regards from The Polish Group to The Grundtvig Partner Project.
