New Beginnings
The Kinning Park Complex Board has decided to implement a transitional structure in light of financial and structural challenges the organisation has faced over the past couple of years. In light of this, the KPC board is proposing that we look at 2023 and 2024 as a period of recovery and transition.
Membership
KPC is a membership organisation with 80% of our members living in the local area with postcodes of G41, G51 or G5. We would like our board membership to reflect this ratio and would be particularly interested to hear from people living or working in these postcode areas.
