“I’d like to thank to The Boys’ Brigade for the chance to attend this very special event. It’s been a great experience and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed every part of it.”

Alan Hunter, Training & Development Officer, accompanied Keir & Robert at the event. Alan said:

“It was a tremendous afternoon and I feel very privileged to have been able to attend with a couple of young people from Scotland.

“The setting was excellent and even the rain did nothing to dampen the spirits of everyone there!”
