This year we are taking on a simple challenge with a powerful purpose, walking a mile a day to raise funds for Archie Highland. Many people know the Archie Foundation for the incredible work they do at Raigmore Hospital, but their support reaches far beyond the hospital walls. They help children and families across the Highlands during some of the most frightening and difficult moments of their lives.

Iain and his care team know just how important that support can be. Archie Highland helps provide specialist equipment, emergency grants for families when they need it most, and toys and activities to bring comfort during long hospital stays. These things may seem small, but they make an enormous difference to children who are unwell and to the families standing beside them.

If you are able to donate, no matter the amount, you will be helping local children receive the care and support they deserve. Every contribution truly does make a difference. The children who benefit may not be able to say thank you themselves, but on their behalf, and from all of us supporting this challenge, thank you so very much for your kindness and generosity.
