Story
For the past four years Broxburn Bottlers and Inver House Distillers have played an annual Charity Football Match. Over that period, we have raised in excess of £15,000 for some very worthwhile causes. The events have been a huge success and a lot of fun. This will be our fifth year and with the wins tied at two each, we have the opportunity to play the match at Goodison Park, the home of Everton Football Club Saturday 20th May. This year our chosen Charity is Alzheimer Scotland, the leading dementia organisation in Scotland. They campaign for the rights of people with dementia and their families and provide an extensive range of innovative and personalised support services.
Here’s how your donation could help:
* £15 will pay for us to send an information pack to a Helpline caller. Our Freephone Dementia Helpline takes over 5,000 calls annually, providing information and emotional support to anyone who needs help.
* £25 pay for us to operate one of our mobile information vehicles for one day. Our mobile information vehicles enable us to raise awareness of dementia and bring information on the condition and the support available to local communities.
* £100 will help us to continue our vital medical and social research into the causes of dementia, its early detection, and how it could be treated in the future.
Inver House Distillers have chosen a local Charity Love & Light - an organisation that helps support Scottish families in the North Lanarkshire Community.
We hope this year will be our best fundraising year yet, please dig deep and give generously for two fantastic causes!!
