Tonight we were invited to Logan Primary School to present about what we as a club do. It was a great opportunity to meet various groups in the community 💙 Ft. our mascot Steve and Brian

This presentation was really thoughtful; we are glad to support such a supportive charity, SAMH. It opened our eyes to how big a problem mental health actually is across Scotland. Please refer to our pinned tweet for helplines if you require help on mental health issues 💙

Our Vice President Liam is running for the local MSYP, anyone who is eligible to vote please consider voting for him. You can read more about him on his link below 💙

Last night a few of our members had the pleasure of attending Rotary’s P7 quiz to give a small talk about the group, also offering an invite to our coffee morning being held at Cumnock Academy on the 29th of March from 9:30 to 12:30, all are welcome to attend 💙@CumnockAcademy

Today at our meeting we had the pleasure of our local charity, Break The Silence, coming in to give us a presentation about their cause and what they do. The experience widen our knowledge of their work and how big a problem sexual assault actually is 💙@BTS_Scotland
