MILITARY MUSEUM SCOTLAND, LINBURN

Thank you to everyone who donated to the Christmas Hamper appeal. Thanks to your generosity, the 100 boxes were filled with food and other necessities. but more than that, another 50 bags of food was handed in, so thats 150 hampers filled for 150 veterans, elderly people,

and families in need who benefited from your kindness.

You could help our “War Chest” appeal. Every penny in the War Chest goes towards keeping Military Museum Scotland open and functioning. You can help fill it by depositing your loose change collection into the box. Every penny does count. Most people collect their loos change in an old jar, bottle etc, but we dont always know what to do with it. One option is to donate it to Military Museum Scotland. lots of people have done that in the past and it does help us..

The museum will be reopening after our Christmas break on Tuesday January 5.
