FES Staff take on Edinburgh Half Marathon for PLUS!
Five staff from FES who were working on a new construction project (Shawfair Energy Centre) decided to run the ½ marathon in Edinburgh on Sunday 26/05/24, and raise funds for PLUS.
“We have chosen to fundraise for PLUS as it is a very worthwhile charity that supports young people with all different kinds of disabilities, giving them the chance to partake in group activities and clubs when it can sometimes be difficult to find somewhere they fit in & are accepted.
On a personal level my son Adrian has benefited from going to events organised by PLUS for a number of years now and he absolutely loves it. PLUS is a small local charity who would benefit massively from any fundraising so any donations would be greatly appreciated.”
Thank you to Martin, Alan, Scott, Lynn and Greg, who raised an amazing £1,046.25!

RAM Charity Testimonial raises funds for PLUS
Loyalty in football is rare these days. Ross McGeachie signe
d for Stirling Albion FC aged 13 (now 28) and has since made over 300 appearances making him the eighth highest in the club’s history. He has been awarded a testimonial season for his outstanding service.
Ross decided that PLUS – which provides services and activities for young people with disabilities – should also benefit from his testimonial fund.
Ross selected three young disabled Stirling Albion Supporters as Ambassadors for his ‘Go Fund Me Campaign’ and set them challenges:
Scott McKenzie has to complete 10 miles around Loch Katrine in his terrain hopper in 4 hours.
Lara Clydesdale must complete 50 laps of the Perimeter of Kings Park Football pitches in 2 hours in her Powerchair. Lara and Scott have Cerebral Palsy.
Jack Robertson, who has late J Global Development, has to walk fifty times around Kings Park Pitches within 3 hours.
Scott, Lara and Jack have all accessed PLUS activities previously. They are all delighted to be part of #TEAM ROSS and raise funds for PLUS. We are right behind them!
Go #TEAMROSS!!
