Altogether In The Park
Altogether In The Park is a community celebration day for Sighthill, Parkhead, Broomhouse and Wester Hailes. The last ATIP on 4 June 2011 was a huge success with around 3000 people coming together on Sighthill Park and taking part in all the activities, from free family entertainment to activities in the Green, Creative and Fit & Healthy Zones. You can see a report on the day here. The next Altogether In The Park event will be on Saturday 1 June 2013.
Altogether In The Park is organised by a Board of voluntary Directors who live in the local area, supported by a Coordinator and other volunteers.
We are very grateful for all the funders who have supported the event in 2011, including Scottish Community Foundation, South West Neighbourhood Partnership, EVOT, The Cooperative Membership Community Fund and Comic Relief.

The Award was the end result of lots of hard work by a sub group and project staff. Our aim is to make the experience of volunteers and prospective volunteers as good as possible.
