Across Ayrshire, more families than ever are relying on foodbanks just to get through the week. Rising costs, reduced incomes and increasing pressure on households mean that demand continues to grow, while donations often struggle to keep up.

Golf Across Scotland is my way of doing something practical to help. To raise awareness and support, I’m attempting to hit a golf ball the entire length of Scotland — over half a million yards — in just 24 hours.

Every pound raised goes straight towards helping people in crisis: providing emergency food, essential supplies and a bit of breathing space for families who need it most.

Ayrshire is my home, and this challenge is about giving something back. If you’re able to support the fundraiser, it will make a real difference to people right here in our communities.
