Kiltwalk heroes raise £5k

-

Housing staff have banked £5,000 for St Vincent’s Hospice in Howwood.

Fourteen workers at Linstone Housing Associaito­n took part in last week’s Kiltwalk.

They walked, ran and cycled in the sunshine and their combined efforts raised the fine total to support the work of the hospice in Renfrewshi­re.

St Vincent’s is Linstone’s chosen charity for the year and a worthy beneficiar­y of the staff’s efforts.

Fiona Dunlop, Linstone’s community engagement officer, said:“The staff did an amazing job raising funds for St Vincent’s, who do such wonderful work in our community.

“It is great that the Kiltwalk continues to do such inspiring fundraisin­g work for so many Scottish charities and we are pleased to be doing our bit for St Vincent’s.”

Carol-Anne Lamont, income generation lead at St Vincent’s, added:“On behalf of all involved with the hospice, I would like to thank all the staff at Linstone who took part in the Kiltwalk.

“Their fantastic efforts will help us to continue to support those who need it within our community.”
