Merry-go-round Glasgow is a social enterprise and charity in the Southside. We support local families with high-quality, low-cost children’s goods, and through inclusive events and workshops. We have a boutique-style shop in Strathbungo selling everything baby. We also run an events programme and work with over 140 agencies across the city to provide free packs of goods to families in need.

We have a skilled and motivated staff team of 14 and an even bigger committed volunteer team. We are an inclusive and fun place to work. We are a Revolve-certified store (www.revolvereuse.com) which means that we work to high standards, are committed to excellence, improving and seeking growth opportunities.
