Cumbrae push update

I mentioned previously, here, that members of the Braehead Wheelchair Curling Club had pushed around Cumbrae to raise funds for Erskine.

As you can see from Aileen Neilson's photo above, a cheque for £500 was duly delivered. Aileen says, "We were warmly welcomed and shown round the excellent facilities. A most worthy cause and well worth the effort."

Well done you guys!

Cumbrae Push for Erskine

Members of Braehead Wheelchair Curling Club were on Cumbrae last Sunday (June 27), to push ten miles round the island in aid of Erskine Hospital.

Gill Keith, Fiona Simm, Billy Galbraith, Alison Cloudsley, Michael McCreadie and Aileen Neilson, along with family and friends, enjoyed the glorious sunshine while pushing for a very worthwhile cause, coinciding with the Armed Forces Day celebrations, acknowledging the sacrifices made by the men and women of our armed forces.

Michael says, "For the past five years we have raised money for our own club. However, this year we felt it appropriate that another worthwhile organisation should benefit."

Well done to all involved! The Armed Forces Day website is here.
