A huge thank you to our incredible fundraisers who took part in the Edinburgh Marathon Festival this weekend in support of MYPAS!

Not long to go now!

Chris and his wife, Becca, will be taking part in the Edinburgh Half Marathon on Sunday, May 24th in support of MYPAS, aiming to raise essential funds that support young people across Midlothian, East Lothian, and the Scottish Borders.

Chris is a teacher at Dalkeith High School and previously spent six years as a Pupil Support Leader, where he worked closely with students to support their health and wellbeing. Through this experience, he has seen firsthand the challenges many young people face, as well as the shortfall in resources available to properly support them. By running the half marathon, Chris and Becca hope to raise as much as possible to support our services and strengthen the help available to those who need it most.

Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a real difference and helps MYPAS continue providing essential support to young people 💚

Here are some of our favourite snaps from the Bluebell 5K & 10K Trail Run last weekend. A HUGE thank you to everyone who took part and raised vital funds for our services that support young people across Midlothian, East Lothian and the Scottish Borders. We’d also like to say a massive thank you and well done to the fabulous volunteers on the Bluebell committee who organised this event for the 7th time, without you none of this would be possible.
