The Hetheringtons' fundraiser for ECAS in memory of Anne Hetherington

Lindsay Coulton aka Hetherington is raising money for Ecas
In memory of Anne Hetherington
Ecas was established over 100 years ago, and works to improve the quality of life of physically disabled people across Edinburgh and the Lothians. We organise various activities, provide a befriending service + operate a small grants scheme. Your support will help us continue to help those in need.

Story

Mum loved her chair yoga sessions with ECAS, even featuring as a poster girl on the website!

ECAS are fortunate to have an endowment for running costs, we plan to ask the charity to direct any fundraising towards their disability grants.

https://www.ecas.scot/grants/

Any adult or child living with a disability in Edinburgh and the Lothians can apply.

Grants in the past have enabled the purchase of larger household items such as washing machines, fridge freezers, cookers, furniture and carpets, IT equipment such as laptops and iPads, power-packs retrofitted to manual wheelchairs… and even student fees, sheds and holidays!

Mum benefitted from her power assist wheels, to help her move around, and from various tech which enabled her to live a purposeful and fulfilling life.

Mum would love the idea that part of her legacy was to help others to purchase equipment or to benefit from experiences to increase independence and enhance quality of life.
