Dig out your kilt and get walking

-

Paisley-born Hollywood A-lister Gerard Butler is calling on Express readers to sign up for the Kiltwalk.

The movie star is joined by Ross King, LA correspond­ent for ITV.

The dynamic duo have recorded a video message and Valentine’s is on their minds — it seems — from some of their cheeky banter.

In the clip, Gerard’s maths skills are put to the test, with Ross telling him about the Kiltwalk’s unique fundraisin­g formula.

Gerard said:“It’s Kiltwalk time. Go to thekiltwal­k.co.uk for more informatio­n.”

Last year, more than 14,000 Scots took part, helping to raise over £2.5million for over 780 charities across Scotland.

Thanks to the extra 40 per cent from The Hunter Foundation, for every £100 raised by a walker, your chosen charity receives £140.

The Kiltwalk takes place on Sunday, April 29, with three different distances to choose from.

Paul Cooney, chief executive of the Kiltwalk, said:“We’re thrilled the Kiltwalk excitement has spread to Hollywood once again.

“And we would like to say a huge thanks to proud Scots Gerry and Ross for being so vocal with their support.

“We want the 2018 Kiltwalk to be bigger than ever before, raising even more money for charities.”
