Mary Fagan’s Legacy in Coatbridge Play Area | Glasgow News

A touching memorial bench has been unveiled in Coatbridge’s beloved play area, honoring Mary Fagan—the tireless advocate who helped build it nearly 30 years ago. In 1996, Mary co-founded Parent Action for Safe Play (PASP), which transformed into a vital community hub offering childcare, after-school programs, and adult training. Under her leadership, PASP opened The Children and Youth Development Centre in 2006, continuing to evolve with the community’s needs. Loved by neighbors as a beacon of compassion and action, Mary believed safe playgrounds are the foundation of thriving communities—and she lived that conviction every day. Her legacy lives on through PASP’s enduring impact. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
