As always, our group has a busy few months coming up on the fundraising front, starting with blueberry picking at Ashgrove Mill in Blairgowrie on 13 September from 3pm-6pm. You’ll find the blueberry farm at Ashgrove Mill, Blairgowrie PH10 7EX (What3words free.backs.decisions) Many thanks to Thomas Thomson for inviting us along.

Our next coffee morning will be in St Catharine’s Hall in Blairgowrie on Saturday 20 September from 10am-noon. These events are always hugely popular, no doubt due to our volunteers’ baking skills!

We’ll be in Tesco Blairgowrie on 10 & 11 October with a grand raffle and if you’re looking for a bargain, why not pop along to the Coupar Angus charity shop from 25 October until 1 November where we’ll have a range of pre-loved clothing, home goods and more?

Blairgowrie RDA is very grateful to everyone who supports us at these events. As a charity, all our work is supported by the local community – from donations and grants to lesson fees and our Clip Clop Club 100 (www.blairgowrierda.co.uk/clip-clop-club-100-draw) – so a big thank you from us.
