Doing The Right Thing. Everybody knows Glasgow folks have one hell of a social conscious. That people are the heart and soul of the city. That it’s a city with a unique spirit and most of all a city that cares.. MCR Pathways is one of Glasgow’s finest inventions, an outstanding charity that gives disadvantaged young people the chance to create a better life for themselves. They’ve knocked it out the park year after year after year after year after year. Thousands and thousands of young people with better, happier and more fulfilling lives making their own dent in the universe as a result. Everybody overlooks things, everybody makes mistakes, unintended consequences, everybody is human. Come on Glasgow, let’s do the right thing, let’s re-open the budget, look a bit harder, dig a bit deeper and explore how you can give one of your most successful social programmes its funding back. It’s the common-sense thing to do. It’s the Glaswegian thing to do. It’s the right thing to do… #MCRPathways #Charity #Glasgow

A very bizarre decision. This is a fabulous program and the young people deserve this support. They thrive with the support of a good mentor. I really hope funds can be redirected to keep it going.

7moI agree with every word. I was so shocked when I heard yesterday. It makes no sense on any level and will cost the council more in the long term. Let us not forget this statistic: "81.6% of mentored pupils went on to a positive destination compared with 56.3% of their non-mentored peers. "
