Holiday for Needy Families
We arrange a holiday for a needy family or small group every year. This year It was a small group who are being cared for by Enable Scotland.
Every year we arrange for a needy family or a small group of other needy people to have the holiday of their lives at Craig Tara Holiday Camp in Ayrshire. This is done under the auspices of the Kilmun Trust.
This year (2022) it was a group who with special needs who are in the care of the 'Enable' charity. Our member, Anne Mackinnon, has worked untiringly with Enable for many years and we were delighted to agree with her suggestion to give this treat to them.
