Welcome to Strathbungo
Come and see why one of Scotland's finest conservation areas is also one of its liveliest, most fun-loving communities. Here's where to find all the latest news from the Bungo, read the notice board or have your say on the Talkback forum.
Posts appear below, but you can navigate to whichever section interests you by using the links on the right. The search box is also a great way to find relevant information. You can also click on the Bungo Map, an interactive map showing Strathbungo and its surrounding area.
This is the official website of The Strathbungo Society, the community group that represents your interests and organises a year-round calendar of events, but it's you who makes it useful and enjoyable. Go to the contact form and tell us about your news, events, clubs, hobbies - and if you'd like to be a Friend of Strathbungo, we'll be delighted to tell you more.
Thank you to everyone who made this year's Bungo in the Back Lanes such a success. If you have any photos you'd like to share with other residents, get in touch and we'll put them up here.
This year’s Bungo in the Back Lanes will be held on Saturday the 19th of June and starts at 1pm.
We’re currently looking for volunteers to help set up, take down and man a stall for an hour or so. Any amount of time is appreciated.
If you fancy running one of the following stalls then we’d be happy to hear from you:
- Alternative therapies/massage
- Fair trade goods
- Crafts
- Bands/musicians
We are also looking for donations for the tombola, bottle and lucky dip stalls. Anything will be accepted, including bottles of shampoo, tins of beans, unused fancy goods and so on. We’re also looking for home-baking. Get in touch if you have anything.
Anyone can set up outside their own back gate and do not need to contact the Strathbungo Society. However for further info or if you are from outwith the three lanes you can contact Joanna on 423 7756.
See the BitBL map for the current highlights.

Hi there,
I just wanted to let you know that I’ve started a Strathbungo group on Flickr, as one didn’t seem to exist.
http://www.flickr.com/groups/strathbungo/
I know there are loads of nice Bungo pics on Flickr and it’d be great to aggregate them.
If you use Flickr, I’d be happy to send you an invite to become a moderator. Even if you don’t, you can grab the code and embed slideshows etc for use on other sites (like this!)…if you fancy.
If you wanted to tell folk about it, hopefully we could grow the membership and number of pics.
Best Wishes,
Helen

The Brighter Bungo clean-up was well supported; thanks to all who came along and helped out. We collected a fair amount of rubbish thanks to your efforts.

Large heavy red sofa free to good home. Slightly tatty but very deep and comfortable. Ideal for teenagers to lounge on or kids to jump on. Photo available.
