Brave St Raphael’s Staff Raise over £1000 for Support in Mind Scotland

Staff from St Raphael’s Care Home have raised an impressive £1011 for Support in Mind Scotland by braving some stomach-churning surprises in a ‘Bushtucker Trial’. Support in Mind Scotland (SiMS) is Viewpoint’s Charity of the Year.

Volunteers showed they have a big appetite for fundraising by taking on a range of unpalatable plates in the trial at St Raphael’s on 19 January.

Cheered on by colleagues, residents and SiMS very own version of Ant & Dec (Colin and Iain), the magnificent seven munched their way through creepy crawlies and other unmentionables to complete the challenge.

Well done to Mary, Brian, Heidi, George, Fotis, Stella and Shirley
