AN EVENT to share knowledge and experience of school runs in the area will be taking place next month.
The School Run Summit is being hosted by Dumbarton Road Corridor Environment Trust and De’ils On Wheels on Tuesday, October 2 at the Heart of Scotstoun Community Centre.
Parents, pupils, teachers, parent councils, residents, community councils and council officials will gather to discuss experiences of school runs.
