The Kiltwalk is coming up!

As the annual Kiltwalk on Sunday 13th September is soon approaching, we want to urge our community to support Eric Liddell Community so we can continue our vital work.

All funds will proceed directly to us and will immediately help support people living with dementia, those experiencing loneliness and isolation, and our wider community work. Plus, donations will be eligible for gift aid, meaning that up to 125% of all funds you raise will help our community!

Registration includes the automatic creation of a fundraising page, making it quick and easy for you to do. Plus, team members will receive an Eric Liddell Community top, goodie bag and
a big old celebration when you cross the line!

Yesterday, we were delighted to welcome Chinese Consul General Zhang Biao to The Eric Liddell Community.

A longstanding friend of the community, the visit provided an opportunity to share more about our work supporting people living with dementia, unpaid carers and the wider community, while reflecting on the enduring legacy of Eric Liddell, whose life and legacy continue to build connections between Scotland and China.

We were grateful for the opportunity to build on this unique connection and explore opportunities for future collaboration. We look forward to our continued friendship in the years ahead.
