Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have not done any significant exercise since Covid but I am inspired to get off the sofa for this 14 mile Kiltwalk in Glasgow in memory of my friend and colleague Don MacKillop.

Don Mac never missed a kiltwalk, even when in pain last year.  He was a huge supporter of Calums Cabin for many years which is a charity providing holiday homes located on the Ise of Bute, Dumfries House in Ayrshire and Anstruther for children suffering from cancer or a cancer related illness.

He recently succumbed to his own complications from soft tissue sarcoma.  He will be hugely missed and I am walking this year in his memory for his favourite charity.  He was an amazing man, big hearted, kind and always happy to go the extra mile for anyone.  I plan to go 14 miles for him.

You don't know him and may not have any connection to Scotland, and I know you see requests like this all the time but PLEASE  add this one to your list.  All the money goes to the charity, it is not skimmed by any other organisation.  A fiver would be brilliant and if you are able to spare more, I would be grateful.  

If you are employed in the UK, please remember to use the Gift Aid option so that the tax you have already paid will be re-directed to the Charity instead.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
