Do you know anyone who lived through the Clydebank Blitz?
In March 1941, German bombers unleashed hell on Clydebank and the surrounding areas. They rained fire and death for two nights, killing over 500 people in one of the darkest periods of Scotland’s history.
The full extent of the Clydebank Blitz was largely ignored by the British media and government at the time, with meagre reports of some bombs being dropped on a town in the west of Scotland. Even today, many people are unaware of the tragedy that befell Clydebank and its people.
We should not forget the hardships and struggles our community has endured in the past, as they can inspire us to face the challenges of an uncertain future with courage and hope.
