Amazing team raise over £2k for QCCC

Updated:

Our heartfelt thanks and admiration to Gillian, Aileen, April and Lindsey for their incredible efforts during the "Run into Christmas and Dive into the New Year" fundraising campaign. Their dedication, courage and creativity left an indelible mark on our community.

Gillian's commitment to completing the Marcothon challenge - running every day in December, even on Christmas Day - was truly inspiring. Covering an incredible 142.8 km over 31 days is an astounding achievement and a testament to her endurance and determination.

Aileen, April and Lindsey's bravery and sense of fun in taking part in the Loony Dook on New Year's Day was equally inspiring. Arriving in style on the Trishaw, dressed in vibrant yellow t-shirts and fancy dress, brought energy and joy to the event. Lindsey's personal dedication in honour of her father, David, added a touching and meaningful element to the challenge.

Together, their effors not only raised over £1900 (and counting) from 99 generous supporters online, but inspired others in the community to come together and contribute to a cause that changes lives.

We must also thank Queensferry Primary. On the 11th December the team experienced one of the most emotional moments of the challenge. The entire school lined the playground, cheering on as Gillian completed her fastest run yet.
