Children charity thanks

On behalf of Children 1st, I thank the people of Argyll for their continued support for Scotland’s national children’s charity.

We’re overwhelmed by the generosity and fundraising efforts from everyone across Scotland.

It is this kindness that has allowed us to help more than 8,000 children and their families this year.

We especially thank players of People’s Postcode Lottery in Argyll for 10 years of support through Postcode Children Trust which has enabled us to continue delivering vital support services including our advice network Parentline.

In the last year, Parentline supported more than 2,100 parents and we look to expand our presence locally in the New Year.

We’ve also been able to prevent and protect children and their families from traumatic experiences, including poverty, loss and abuse thanks to the players, as well as helping them become stronger and more resilient together.

With the support of players of People’s Postcode Lottery through Postcode Children Trust, we can help build a brighter future for more children and families in Argyll. Mary Glasgow, Children 1st.
