Overview:
Glasgow Street Aid is a pre-hospital medical and welfare charity based in the heart of the city, helping tackle pressures on both the ambulance service and A&E departments, by providing on scene care in the city.
Their volunteers come from all walks of life who take on different roles within the charity - control room dispatcher, fundraiser or building support worker, to being a part of their medical street teams who are made up of qualified First Responders, Ambulance Technicians, Registered Nurses, Paramedics, Doctors, and students within different healthcare fields.
Glasgow Street Aid is situated within one of only two surviving category B-listed Victorian, classical style warehouses designed by W. Lochhead in 1855 - for the famous Wylie & Lochhead - built initially for coffin storage!
Through the ornate iron gates to the right of our front door, you can view the original horse drawn carriage courtyard.
Wide front door and ramp access. Limited seating. Tours are ground floor only.
