The case study was guided by the results of the Scoping Study and it was a section of the wider community heritage project CanalCraft.
The groups
The groups that participated in the case study were part of the localities in focus: a refugee and asylum seekers’ integration organisation and a women’s centre in Maryhill, and an LGBT+ youth group in Kirkintilloch. These groups’ community work also included campaigning and advocating for the rights of their members. Activism was a common thread between the FCCS and the community groups involved in the case study.
In the case study, groups participated in: boat-building, boat-handling, and celebratory events and exhibition. Further information is provided in the links below:
