As we are all aware the Russell Institute has been put up for sale by the NHS. Miss Agnes Russell donated the building to Paisley in memory of her two bachelor brothers.

Paisley Development Trust have stepped in and hope to guarantee its future. They have earmarked this iconic building as a potential site for a new Arts and Cultural Centre.

Piero Pieraccini said that an in depth feasability study will have to be done to see if the PDT can afford it.

Anyone who wants to volunteer their services to the project can e-mail Piero on Pieropieraccin@aol.com or paisley_development_trust@yahoo.co.uk
