Steph here, I am doing the Aberdeen Kilt Walk on the 7th of June 2026 . I had so much fun last year. I am part of Team Newton Dee again. We are raising funds for our Capital Development Fund. The current project is are the new Bakery and Confectionery workshops. I used to work in the Bakery and still have lots of friends who work there. For those who know our Bakery and Confectionery bake fabulous artisan breads, delicious cakes, scones, croissants and amazing pizza.

Newton Dee's old Bakery and Confectionery building are bit tired. Instead I would like to do my part to support construction of a new building up near our Store and Cafe. This would reduce traffic through the centre of our village and will make it safer for me to walk and cycle around the community. It will be handy to have the Bakery and Confectionary next to the Store where I work. I like collecting the bread from the bakery at the end of the day.

I learned that the new Bakery and Confectionery will also be much more efficient and better for the environment. The improved layout and function of the spaces will enhance the therapeutic qualities of the workshop, which is something positive for the people who work there as far as I understand. Please have a look of the pictures I took of the new building in my updates.

Thank you for supporting me with my Kilt Walk - Steph
