Scott's Million@50

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Many of you will know that I've played percussion in Brass Bands for a good number of years.  It's a community I grew up in and learned  many life skills as well as my love for music. It's like a second family. 

Bathgate Band is one of the oldest Brass Bands in the country. It exists to help spread the joy of learning and making music across the local community and further afield.  It welcomes young and old, beginners and experts.

 Like many of the Brass Bands around the country we rely heavily on donations and grants to keep us running. Most of these we obtain through performances at concerts, parades or gala days.  This last year and the COVID restrictions has hit us hard and so I want to do my bit to help keep this wonderful family going.

On 12 April, I will start a challenge to record 1 million steps in 50 days (for the keen counters among you that's an average of 20,000 steps a day).  I will do this by walking, running or 'high stepping' on an exercise trampoline. All to achieve 1 million steps by 31 May...my 50th birthday.

Any contribution you can provide will be very very welcome and will keep the band going until we can get out performing again. You can find out more about the band at Home | The Bathgate Band or by searching "Bathgate Brass Band" on facebook.

Thanks for your support and look out for my regular updates on Facebook.
