    A new exhibition has opened in Glasgow which tells the story of South Asian immigrants in Scotland.

    The exhibition, GlaswegAsian, is on display in Scotland Street School Museum and presents a wealth of history about the country's largest immigrant population.

    The exhibition tells the story of how people from South Asia came to Scotland and made the country their home.

    It is a collaboration between Glasgow Life and Colourful Heritage, a community group based in Glasgow that has developed the largest online video archive recording the migration stories of people from South Asia to Scotland.

    Included are videos of the stories of older immigrants who migrated to Scotland in the 1930s and 1940s from India and Pakistan.
