Alan Stewart & Rex Porter - The Final Munro Sponsorship Details


Fundraisers:  Alan Stewart, Rex Porter

After 30 years of hill-walking, and 281 Munros* already bagged, on the 27th October 2012, we will scale our final Munro, Aonoch Mor, at Fort William.

We are using this occasion to raise funds for Speur Ghlan Early Intervention Service, a small Scottish self funding charity supporting young children with autism. Emma, Alan’s grandaughter has recently been diagnosed with autism and is receiving therapy from them.

This fantastic wee charity provides the early intervention approach advocated by, but unfortunately not at present delivered by the NHS.  Speur Ghlan ( Gaelic for Blue Skies ) provide a programme of play-based therapy tailored specifically to the needs and strengths of the child, which will encourage communication, interaction, language and play. In addition, they provide training and support to families to empower them to support and work with their child at home.

Please help us raise much needed funds for Speur Ghlan so they can continue their fantastic work with children across Scotland whose needs are not being met elsewhere.

Thanks in advance

Alan
