Minibus
Hitting the Open Road!

Kinning Park has its own mini-bus to allow the Residents to enjoy outings around Glasgow, Edinburgh, Stirling, Loch Lomond and all the local places of interest. On board the bus we usually take a packed lunch, which is freshly prepared that day by the cooks in the kitchen. There are also occasions when the Residents are treated to a McDonalds and fish suppers. These outings are always enjoyed by the Residents. 

If you wish more information on the activities and services offered please download our brochure.
