The object of West Highland Way race is essentially simple, you start at Milngavie Railway Station (7miles north of Glasgow) at 1am on 23rd June & run/jog/walk to Fort William Leisure Centre by noon on the 24th June, 35 hours to cover 153km (95 miles) including 3543m (11624ft) of ascent.
The goal is to run the race to raise money for Corseford School in Johnstone.
The children need a specially adapted soft play area .
At the moment the children have no outdoor play area due to the prohibitive cost of such a venture.
Installing such a soft play area will undoubtedly have a significant impact on the childrens ongoing education and development.
No direct link to the school but details can be found here..

This school has a special unit for this particular need:
Hearing Impairment (HI)
Visual Impairment (VI)
Moderate Learning Difficulties (MLD)
Physical Disabilities
Language and Communication Disorders
Quotes for the play area come in about £ 30000. At the moment we have over
£ 17256+ in donations . The push is on and time is short.
