Story
As a direct result of our Caledonian Ball, Light into Europe along with Scottish NGO Feis Rois, will be taking 4 visually impaired children on a musical, sensory extravaganza to Ullapool Scotland for a fun & friendly week of learning about Scottish music and culture. They will stay 1 week from 9th-16th April
Check out the 'Junior Feis' information on the link below:

The flights and accomodation are all covered thanks to the generosity of Feis Rois and the Scottish Government, but we want to raise some money to make this a truly special trip for the children; allowing them to return with some items like a musical instrument they can play, or a memory of Scotland.
