Cassiltoun Supports Young People Start their Career in Housing
June 2023
There is currently discussion in the housing sector about how we encourage more people to choose housing as a career. Over its long history Cassiltoun has always supported people of all ages to gain skills and experience through volunteering opportunities and work placements and this year has been no different. We were delighted this summer when 4 members of our staff/Modern Apprentices completed their qualifications in Business SCQF level 6 . All four have been successful in gaining employment in the sector.
Hazardous Waste Campaign
In Glasgow, there has been a significant increase in hazardous - often explosive - items being deposited in domestic bins. These items are unsafe and cannot be managed through the normal waste and recycling collection services.
Incorrect disposal of hazardous items puts the health and safety of staff at risk and jeopardises the integrity of critical processing infrastructure. Glasgow City Council have launched their first phase of their Hazardous Waste Campaign. More information can be found on their website www.glasgow.gov.uk/hazardouswaste.
