The Glasgow Police Museum

We were greeted by a retired policeman who was very welcoming, friendly, and had a good sense of humour. He engaged really well with our service users who have additional support needs, and gave us an interesting introduction about how the police started in Glasgow along with some background history. After the introduction, we explored the museum at our own pace. It’s small but full of fascinating information and displays. We especially enjoyed seeing the old police weapons and the variety of police uniforms and hats from different countries around the world. The only downside was the lift — it’s very old and quite outdated, which made it feel a bit intimidating to use. We decided to take the stairs instead (two small flights up to the first floor). Overall, it was a friendly and enjoyable visit with plenty of history and charm.
