From the school gates to Parliament—who would have thought it! Thank you, Fulton, for believing in Soap Glow and helping us be heard. Karen & Amanda ♻️🩷

Soap Glow
Fulton MacGregor MSP for Coatbridge & Chryston

Delighted to invite the fantastic Soap Glow through to Parliament today to meet Alison Thewliss, Minister for Community Care.

The demand for the group’s services have grown massively across Lanarkshire and beyond since they first started at their school base in Shawhead.

It is right and proper that Karen and Amanda’s tireless work in helping to challenge the scourge of hygiene poverty is recognised at this level.

I’ll continue to support Soap Glow in any way I can and I wish them well as they continue helping people.

💪💪

Four local venues. A serious amount of empties. Real local help for local people.

Bank Social Club, Dundyvan, Sunnyside Suite , Big Owen's Bar Coatdyke, all in Coatbridge and The New Rhindsdale Tavern in Bailleston are collecting cans for Soap Glow — and quite honestly, collections like these are what keep us going.

Those bags turn into soap, shampoo, toothpaste and other basics for local people and families who need a wee bit of help.

They aren’t doing this for praise, but they absolutely deserve some. Please SHARE 🥰♻️ this, give their pages a follow and support the local places supporting local people.. also, please tag those above who we couldn’t find on fb. 😜

If you run a pub, club, café or workplace and could collect empties for us too, message Soap Glow. One bag really does make a difference.

And one last thought; cites you be our next volunteer of bag collecting and /or recycling? DM us please if you’re that person 😇🩵

Lots of you have really have got behind Soap Glow. Thank you very much 💛♻️

Every share, every donation, every bag, bottle and can — our community just keeps showing up. And we honestly can’t thank you enough.

So… we’ve found you another way to help. 👀
