A few months ago I asked who in Paisley I should film to highlight the positive work being done — and this person's name kept coming up !
What really stood out was how often he has been the driving force behind creating things.
From nights, venues and events, to spaces like Café 77 , he’s always been about bringing people together.
Now, that same drive has turned into Paisley Alive.
A chance to give something back to the town that shaped him.
That’s why Chapter 2 focuses on Scott McFarlane
A local story built from belief, community, and the idea that creating should be for more than just yourself.
This is Paisley.
Chapter 2: Built for More Than Me. 👀

So a few weeks ago I asked who I should film a video for to show the positive work they’re doing in Paisley and Ian from Glen Buns was mentioned more times than I can count.
What really stood out to me was the effort going into giving back, and creating something that genuinely puts smiles on people’s faces. That’s exactly the kind of energy this series is about.
That’s why Chapter 1 starts in Glenburn, Paisley.
Shining a light on local people doing good things, backed by the community itself. This one felt like a no-brainer. More chapters soon 👀

PATCHWRK × Calum Stevenson.

Nobody can deny that @roasterspaisley is an institution since opening its doors in Paisley.
Most people talk about it.
These lads actually done it.
Started with an idea, took the risk, and built something of their own right here in Paisley.
No waiting. No perfect plan. Just backing themselves.
If you’ve been thinking about doing something…
this is your sign to just start.
THIS IS PAISLEY – CHAPTER III
