Story

BJ's Walk is in memory of BJ (Big John Macgillivray) Iona’s dad who tragically died on the 31 October 2012.  He fought his alcohol demons for many years and Iona would like to help other children who suffer because of their parent’s addiction's, so Iona chose Barnardo’s Hopscotch to benefit from our walk..  Iona decided that we would do a sponsored walk of 55 Miles in around 24 - 26 Hours!  Iona, Marina (her mum) and Janet (her auntie) will be taking part on the 20th of Setember 2013.

Barnardos Hopscotch was started in Perth in 1998 and provides help and support to young people who have been affected by parental alcohol or drug misuse and aims to reduce the impact of these issues.

Hopscotch makes a meaningful difference to many childrens lives so thankyou for you generous donation.

Iona, Marina and Janet
