Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Well another year, another kiltwalk. Once again myself and Dave dawn the tartan, pack the backpacks and take on the kiltwalk. 

This year we are joined by another ShmuFM celebrity in Simon.Last year it was the 16 miles, I came up short with a thigh injury but Dave powered on and completed it for he both of us. 

Why do it again I hear you say, well we are both giving back to a charity we both believe in. There are a lot of charities out there that say the change lives but Aberdeen Football Club Community Trust do not only say it but believe it and achieve it. Both Dave and myself are walking, talking proof. We both took on the challenge of changing our lives through the Aberdeen Football Fan in Training program run by AFCCT and loved it so much that we both now volunteer within the trust.

What we are doing is just giving back to a Trust that believed in us, a charity that stood behind us and asked for nothing back in return. We are more than honored to be able to do this for the Trust.Someone far greater than me once said "Aberdeen have what money can't buy; a soul, a team spirit built in a family tradition." So please dig deep, in the end all the money goes back into the communities around the city.
