Andrew's fundraiser for Scottish Burned Children's Club

Andrew Earle is raising money for Scottish Burned Children's Club

Marathon tyre carry/drag

Scottish Burned Children's Club (SBCC) Launched in 2001, the SBCC provides a network of support to burn survivor children and their families dealing with the lifelong scars of burn and scald injuries. We provide positive support to burn-injured children and help them realise that, although their body image has been altered, their hopes and dreams are just as achievable. Our Aims - Firstly to help in the rehabilitation process of these children and provide support to their families. Secondly to play a key role in the reduction of such injuries by raising awareness of the problem and promoting safe practice in relation to the dangers associated with burns and scalds. SBCC is solely funded by fundraising events, sponsorship and donations and is run and organised by a group of 'unpaid' volunteers.

Story

I’m hoping to raise funds and awareness for the Scottish Burned Children's Club as in November this year they turn 25 years old and they like many other charities rely on fundraising and donations to keep them afloat.

In December 2020, Selena our youngest, just 2 years old at the time, was severely burned at home in an accident involving scalding hot tea. This meant that less than a week from Christmas we were faced with lockdown, kids at home on Arran, without their parents and one potentially not being home due to her double skin graft. The help, advice, reassurance and guidance from this charity so far has been incredible for helping mainly Jen and myself cope with what happened to our wee one and now that Selena is almost 8 years old she will be able to reap the full benefits from this incredible charity soon! This includes emotional support, fun days, summer camp, and peer support - it’s such a valuable resource.

My goal is to drag/carry a 50kg tractor tyre from Lochranza distillery to Lagg hotel via Lagg distillery to make it a marathon distance over 2 weekends this June. Anyone who wants to join in for a stretch to keep me company is more than welcome! 🙏

Please donate whatever amount you can to support my efforts and the efforts of the amazing charity and it’s volunteers at the Scottish Burned Children's Club.
