Since its inception, Kris, his family, Trustees and the rest of the team have been overwhelmed with the support and generosity from all over the UK, particularly in Ayrshire and West of Scotland. Scottish football and the wider sporting community has given its full endorsement to what Kris is trying to achieve, many people have backed the Charity with their time, effort and donations. The foundations have been put down and we now look to keep growing. But we realise that with the ongoing challenges of Covid-19 this is going to be difficult. But we plan to tackle everything head on, expand and offer more services, whether its helping to raise Mental Health awareness and also with increase Partnerships and Relationships with other charities, as well as well as businesses and support groups. With your help and understanding, collectively, we can make it happen.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Our aim is to raise as much awareness as we can for mental health and with the help of family and friends fundraise money towards a very worthwhile charity in Ayrshire, The Kris Boyd Charity.

Hopefully stepping in the right direction of stopping the stigma attached to mental health and ensure people who are struggling know of this charity and contact them or simply start a conversation with their loved ones or friends about their feelings/problems.

We will be wearing The Kris Boyd Charity t-shirts whilst training, so you might spot us walking around Ayrshire. We will also be wearing them for the event.

We - Karen Galloway, Matthew Milligan, Archie Milligan and James Milligan are planning on walking the West Highland Way, (just under 100 miles) starting 9/09/23 over 5 days. Then - Karen Galloway, James Galloway and Skye Wyllie will climb Ben Nevis on day 6. 

In memory of Neil Wyllie who sadly took his own life February 2022. A much loved husband, father, family member and friend. Gone but never forgotten, forever in our hearts. 💕 

Mental health effects most families/individuals at some point in their life, so please start stepping in the right direction by being kind to others, stop stigmatising and if you can donate to The Kris Boyd Charity who are trying to help others find their way and stop families losing their loved ones to suicide.
