Forth Bridge Abseil · 24 June 2012 ·

Sight Scotland has supported and campaigned for people affected by visual impairment for over two centuries, but we know we can do more. Our vision is an inclusive Scotland where everyone, regardless of their sight, has the opportunity to thrive. But we can only achieve this with your help.

Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>I'm Kevin Buckley and I am a Funeral Arranger with Scotmid Co-operative Funeral Directors based at the Funeral Home at Liberton, Edinburgh. Throughout the year I like to raise awareness for charities by using the windows in my funeral home to help promote these charities. This time I have decided to help the award winning Braeside House which is located a few minutes walk away from the Funeral Home. It is operated by the charity Royal Blind and is a care home which provides first class care for visually impaired residents.</p> <p>To help raise some funds I thought I would do my bit by taking part in abseiling from the 165ft Forth Rail Bridge on 10th June 2012!!...I have never done anything like this before and I would be really grateful if you would help me raise some funds.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
