Culture Crawlers raise £100,000

A unique charity walk through the streets of Aberdeen has raised £100,000 for north-east cancer sufferers.

More than 500 people took part in the second annual Maggie’s Culture Crawl last month.

The 10-mile sponsored walk took participants around a series of the city’s cultural hotspots, rewarding them with food, drink and entertainment along the way.

All of the money raised has been donated to the Aberdeen Maggie’s Centre, which offers emotional support for people with cancer and their family and friends.

Centre fundraising manger Paula Cormack said: “We are so grateful to everyone who took part in and supported this year’s Culture Crawl, helping to raise a truly unprecedented sum of money.”
