St Johnstone Community Trust has received £4,000 in funding from Perth’s Tesco stores to support its Football Memories project.

Run in conjunctio­n with Alzheimer Scotland, trained volunteers speak with dementia sufferers about the sport in an effort to help them recall past experience­s.

At St Johnstone’s McDiarmid Park home are Tesco community champion Fiona Smith, Football Memories member George Aitken and volunteer Anne Mailer.
