About Us
Nestled in the heart of Glasgow’s South Side at 52 First Gardens, Hazelwood House is more than just a conference centre. It is a welcoming place for personal growth, community connection, and meaningful conversations.
​
As a family-oriented centre, Hazelwood House offers a variety of enriching programmes designed for people of all ages. These include an activity-based club for girls from P4 to S6, as well as events and activities that bring parents and children together. Through these initiatives, the centre aims to foster creativity, strong relationships, and positive values.
​
The activities at Hazelwood House are inspired by the teachings of Saint Josemaría Escrivá, founder of Opus Dei. His message emphasises that all Christians are called to holiness and evangelisation through their everyday lives.
All activities ran at Hazelwood House fall under the umbrella of Tamezin (Registered Scottish Charity: SC054742 )
History of the House
Hazelwood House is a 19th-century building that was acquired in 2003 by DHEF (Registered Scottish Charity No SCO39512). The building was refurbished in 2010.
Despite the continued fundraising support of DHEF–Scotland, the centre still relies heavily on the generosity of donors and supporters.
The heritage of the building stretches back many years and has a rich and interesting history. If you would like to learn more about the history of Hazelwood House, please follow the link provided.
