A statement from those occupying the Heartherington Research Club at Glasgow University. It is up to the students and supporters to use the space and support their efforts in keeping alive this valuable asset.
SUPPORT THE OCCUPATION
Students have reclaimed the Heatherington Research Club- the post-graduate club which was forced to close last year due to finance problems.
University management refused to bail out the club, nor accept a new finance plan. We have taken the building as a last ditch effort to save it for Glasgow's students. The HRC has been lying empty for a full year now, and we think we can put it to better use.
We want the building to be a space for people across the city to utilise in the struggle against cuts and austerity. And we want it to be a safe non-commercial space for students of Glasgow Uni - for socialising, for education and for engaging with the movement against cuts and fees, both on our campus and across the city.
It's your space --- get involved.
