    Born from the ashes of the Pollock Free state and the community spirit generated and propagated by…read moreit's lengthy and highly publicised battle against the Governments desire for yet another motorway bypass, the Galgael trust was began in the early 90's down by the Clyde in the once thriving ship building area of Govan. With fierce and determined eyes set on the building of a trust that would bring work and meaning back to the local area, founder Colin Macleod (RIP 2005) and his clan launched the Galgael trust with humble means and accommodation. But with the backing of the community and the belief of doing something right, they have established themselves as a invaluable local amenity offering modern day apprenticeships, advice and support for those in need. As believers in the practical and aesthetic relevance of traditional Scottish boat building and craftsmanship, Galgael seeks to offer meaning to the nature of work in a very simple and organic (in the truest sense of the word) way. I can't speak any higher of this organisation and its moral and ethical stand point. Please make an effort to check them out on the web or in person at there premises or any of the various festivals they organise and attend. Slangevar

Galgael's positivity goes in three directions: it celebrates a creative past, offers opportunities to the marginalized and helps to encourage the Govan area's pride: lately, the city has been all about rediscovering its heritage and pride, and organisations like Galgael were doing this, even when it was unfashionable.
