About Hands On Heritage

The Heritage Collection at East Renfrewshire Culture & Leisure has become even easier to access, with the opening of our new heritage store. Collections previously kept off-site are now able to be viewed by appointment, expanding upon the material already available to view at Giffnock Heritage Centre.

We are also launching staff led sessions, which will allow you to explore curated highlights of the East Renfrewshire Heritage Collection. Every month we will select some of our most interesting treasures and share the stories behind them.

Places are free but must be booked. As spaces are limited please let us know if you can no longer make it, so that the tickets can be made available to others.
