Golf Match
The Clober Golf Club in Milngavie held a charity golf match in aid of local charity Cure Cancer Scotland.

Kay McFarlane, chairperson of Cure Cancer Scotland, thanked the club, players and everyone involved in supporting the event and making it such a success.

A total of £1152 was raised for the Appeal with ‘Rangers’ winning on the day! Graeme said “we all know someone affected by cancer so this is such a great cause”.
Doing us a favour
Many thanks to Katrina and John Taylor who decided to forego the traditional favours at their recent wedding and instead gave all their guests a Beatson Pebble Appeal badge and made a donation to the appeal.
