Scotland's Railway fundraisers take the plunge for Age Scotland

Scotland's Railway fundraisers abseil

22 August 2025

We are very grateful to Robert, Ross and Paul - our three fundraisers from Scotland's Railway who bungee jumped over the River Garry recently, raising more than £1,600 for Age Scotland.

Their brave adventure will help us support older people across the country.

Ross kindly shared his reasons for supporting Age Scotland:

“As Nana’s birthday approaches at the end of August, I’ve been reflecting on just how much she meant to me. Growing up, one of the hardest lessons we learn is that we eventually lose the people we love most. But it’s also in those moments of loss that we come to appreciate the support systems that exist to care for others like them.

"That’s why I’m supporting Scotland’s charity for older people — an organisation that exists to improve the lives of people over 50 across Scotland”.

If you're feeling inspired to take on your own challenge, take a look at the exciting events we have coming up.
