We’re taking on the Glasgow Kiltwalk Mighty Stride (23 miles!) on 25 April 2026, and we’re raising funds for one of Glasgow’s best charities: Refuweegee 💙
Refuweegee supports people who’ve been forced to flee their homes and are arriving in Scotland to start again. They provide welcome packs filled with essentials (toiletries, food basics, practical items) — and just as importantly, they help people feel safe, seen, and welcomed.
They also share thousands of handwritten welcome letters from people across Scotland. It’s simple, but powerful: a reminder that someone’s not alone when everything’s changed.
And right now, this matters more than ever. Too many people arriving after unimaginable upheaval are met with suspicion instead of support. Refuweegee is about choosing kindness, dignity, and community.
They say it best: "We’re all fae somewhere".
I’m walking with my pal Mhairi and her sister Meghan — which means our team name obviously had to be Mhairi and the Meghans!
If you can spare anything, we’d be so grateful. Every donation helps Refuweegee keep doing what they do best: making sure people arriving in Scotland get a proper welcome.
Thank you for backing us! Every penny raises will dampen the pain in my poor feet 😂
