Walk a Walk for Erskine
The Veterans Charity Erskine is fast
approaching one of the most important
weeks in its calendar; Erskine Week. From
1st to 8th June friends and supporters of
Erskine will be pulling out all the stops to
make Erskine Week 2009 a record breaking
fundraiser.
Erskine is hoping that its many supporters
will follow in the footsteps of brothers
Grant and Tam Smith in raising funds for
Erskine. Walking the West Highland Way,
Scotland’s first official long distance route
linking Milngavie to Fort William covering
the 95 miles, was the brothers’ choice of fund raising event for Erskine.
Having braved the elements of the mercurial April weather, the dense
woodland, and great big hills, not to mention to dreaded midge they
were delighted to find that people dug deep into their pockets and
sponsored them very generously, so far to the tune of £1,300. Grant
and Tam, both veterans themselves, know how important the care
Erskine provides is. Grant said “It was and is always a privilege and
honour to do something that will benefit Erskine. As long as there is
war in this world there will always be a need for Erskine”
Our Erskine Bridge Walk on Monday 1st June might not be as arduous
as the West Highland Way,
at just over 2 miles there
and back, but already we
have local schools and
many individual walkers
registered for what we hope
will be a fun packed day.
