Thank you to all that took part in the Kiltwalk Challenge for our #WEEBOX appeal - it's not an easy feat! 

We raised a fantastic £4819.50! With the amazing 50% top up from Sir Tom Hunter with help from the UK Aid Match scheme, this gives us a grand total of £10,829 – well done to all involved. The money raised will make a huge difference to children with disabilites in South Sudan.

The hills are alive for SCIAF

After her SCIAF school talk, Emily was inspired to make a difference in the world. She took to the hills for three days straight and raised £260! Fantastic work, Emily!

Inspirational words from Elaine

Elaine McGinlay, our very own Development Education Officer raised a fantastic £645. Amazing job, Elaine!

Elaine McGinlay said:

"The WEE BOX appeal this year is close to my heart because for big walks like the #Kiltwalk, I use a leg brace as I have multiple sclerosis. I’m very fortunate to have this aid and access to a physiotherapist.

"The WEE BOX appeal will help to offer similar support to young people living with disabilities in South Sudan."

A couple of Ben Ledi legends

Peter is a proud SCIAF supporter and works for RBS, a Kiltwalk sponsor, so naturally, he signed up to the challenge and made the most of it! He climbed Ben Ledi with his wife and raised an amazing £478.

Matthew took the scenic route

Matthew has been a supporter of SCIAF since he was wee. He mapped out a circular 26 mile route from Glasgow to the Falkirk wheel! Now to get training for next year's attempt...
