Story

Gillian, Louise and I are running the New York Marathon this November for a cause we truly believe in. Fundraising is just as daunting as the training so we appreciate every contribution, however small!

I was inspired by Keir McGruer, a classmate of my daughter, who sadly passed away last year. People across Highland communities deserve a high standard of care locally in order to support their loved ones. With better facilities for the children's ward, and a separate ward for teenagers at Raigmore, we should be able to help so many local families get access to excellent facilities and support.

We have some cool events planned for the year including the Archie marathon challenge at BSGI - can the pupils match our 26miles between them in a day?.... If they can do it - we'll have to do it!!
