Glenkens Hub News, events, photos and more from in and around the communities of the Glenkens. Please find our social media policy here: https://tinyurl.com/GCATSMpublic

The Glenkens Hub website and social media channels provides community-led information for the Glenkens and is a sister publication to the Glenkens Gazette. The Glenkens Hub was inspired by the request of the communities as part of the Glenkens and District Community Action Plan and we hope that you find it both enjoyable and informative. The views expressed on the Glenkens Hub are those of the contributors and not necessarily those of the Editor or of GCAT.

Re-start dated for CatStrand Young Creatives after the Christmas break 👇

🎄 We’re wrapping up for Christmas! 🎄

Young Creatives has had an amazing year, and we’re so proud of everything our children and young people have achieved. We’re taking a little break over the festive period, so we’ve popped the start dates for all our regular activities below to help you plan for the new year.

A huge thank you to all our staff, volunteers, and our incredible funders, YouthLink Scotland, The Holywood Trust, and YMI, for supporting Young Creatives. We genuinely couldn’t do it without you!

We’re excited to see what 2026 brings! ✨

Wishing you all a warm, creative, and restful Christmas break. 💛

All activities for 2026 can be booked online with exception of piano that is currently full.
