We recently hosted our five year anniversary awards dinner at the beautiful Prestonfield House in Edinburgh. Over 400 of you joined us for an uplifting occasion where we toasted Doddie and the Foundation’s efforts towards finding a cure, celebrated our brilliant fundraisers and raised funds to continue our vital work.

Highlights of the evening include: Martin Bayfield hosting a fantastic auction, and a live Q&A with Scotland coach Gregor Townsend and All Blacks legend John Kirwan. And what would an evening like this be without live music? So the Red Hot Chilli Pipers made an appearance to get everyone on their feet!

Thank you to everyone that attended the evening, and to all of you that continue to support us.
