We are all painfully aware of our consumer culture where everyone appears to sue everyone else for any number of things. Any accident, or event caused by negligence. It all started here in Paisley in 1928, leading to a landmark decision by the House of Lords in 1932.

Join Paisley Darkside Historical Walking Tours to get the full story of that fateful May Donoghue took a train to Paisley and nearly died, the court case and final ruling that changed the world.

Where possible we will update our listings to notify of cancelled, postponed and rescheduled events, however we STRONGLY ADVISE that you check with the venue/organiser in the first instance for updates.
