Celebrating St Andrew’s Day with kindness
This St Andrew’s Day (Friday) the Scottish Government is encouraging us all to do something kind and make someone’s day.
On Arran the #MakeSomeonesDay campaign has been taken up by the Glen Estate Lunch Club in Brodick which is asking businesses on the island if they can spare a chef for one day to prepare and cook a two-course meal. The club is also always on the lookout for volunteers.
However, simply check- ing on an elderly neighbour or doing the shopping for a poorly friend – any act of kindness is being encouraged today.
Ben Macpherson, minister for Europe, migration and international development, said: ‘This year we can all show the best of what it means to be Scottish by each of us doing something small to #MakeSomeonesDay. If each of us does something kind for someone else, together we can make a big, positive impact for the benefit of the whole of Scotland.’
If the lunch club can borrow your chef, please contact Bobbi Mulholland at the Arran CVS on 600611.
