Arkbound Foundation ran a series of workshops at the Community Newsroom, attended by writers from across Glasgow. Over the course of six sessions, writers respond creatively to the cost of living crisis – through poetry, short stories, and reflective prose, highlighting the power of literature to document their experiences.

Five candidates vying for the Glasgow East seat addressed a sparse crowd at a foodbank-hosted hustings, discussing poverty, inequality, and their visions for the future. With the SNP and Labour as leading contenders, the debate highlighted the critical issues facing one of Scotland's most deprived communities.

During lockdown, Greater Govanhill editor Rhiannon reported on how some community spaces were supporting those in need by providing food provisions. Three years on, little has changed, except for the increase in the number of people seeking support.
