We were delighted to be the chosen charity for the Kick the Ball event earlier this year. An event incorporating a 100+mile cycle stopping off at some of the Highland League Football Clubs.

The event raised an amazing 🎉£55,256.12 🎉.

Huge thank you to Ian Ord, Mike Macaulay and Pat Machray for organising and co-ordinating the event and to British long distance cyclist, broadcaster and author Mark Beaumont who lead the cycle and entertained guests at the dinner in the evening. Thanks to all the cyclists who took part on the day and to the Highland League Football Clubs who contributed to the funds raised with various activities during their pre season training.
