All of us at Outside the Box are now settling happily in to our new home at The Whisky Bond. We said goodbye to Brand Street, which had hosted us for 6 years, and have moved northwards to the old whisky warehouse which sits by the side of the canal overlooking Glasgow, and which now houses a dynamic mix of organisations. We’re loving being part of a workspace which encourages community and creativity, our large new office is a welcome home to our growing team, and the opportunity to linger by the canal at lunchtime is an added bonus.

We know that it can be difficult sometimes when you move somewhere new to build connections with the people around you & today we enjoyed having an open-door to welcome others in the building to meet us and help us put names to faces in the corridors. Some of our work we’re doing within different communities around Scotland has highlighted the challenges people have meeting others in their community, and the benefits that this can bring when it does happen; we’re hoping to develop a resource which will offer hints & tips for ways to meet your neighbours and benefit from local connections. Watch this space / please let us know if you are interested in this or have any success stories to share.

We welcome you to meet us in our new home! Look at this page for directions for how to get here.

Warning: anyone visiting the Outside the Box office, may be forced to take a parting gift of Anne’s homemade jam….
