About Glasgow Bethlehem Twinning Association
The Glasgow Bethlehem Twinning association was set up to promote and develop the City of Glasgow Twinning with Bethlehem. We aim to foster friendship between the people of the two cities and broaden mutual understanding of the cultural, recreational, educational and commercial activities of the linked cities.
We will encourage visits by individuals and groups to and from the linked cities, including children and young people and the development of personal contacts.
Keep an eye on our news page or sign up to be on our mailing list as we will be organising fund raising activities to foster the aims of the Association.
We will endeavour to promote and encourage twinning projects between Glasgow and Bethlehem, particularly of an educational and commercial nature.
This was one of the Glasgow Bethlehem Twinning Association’s first public events in 2024. GBTA has received great support since it started and we look forward to continued support as we plan more events and programs.
GBTA is a member of the Britain Palestine Friendship and Twinning Network (BPFTN).
PFTN is made up of around 35 member groups with the common aim of building friendship and solidarity with the Palestinian people. These groups and links vary in size, location, activities and approach according to the priorities of individual groups and their partners. They include links with churches, trade union branches, universities and hospitals as well as community and religious groups, and Palestinian towns, villages and cities.
