A recent tractor run organised by NFU Scotland’s Highland Perthshire branch has raised thousands for local charities. This year one of the chosen charities was educational charity The Royal Highland Education Trust established to create the opportunity for every pupil in Scotland to learn about food, farming and the countryside.
A cheque for £1122 was presented to Alix Ritchie, RHET Project Co-ordinator for Perth & Kinross at the Aberfeldy Show on Saturday.
Alix said “The committee are really grateful to be chosen as a recipient for the money raised at the tractor run. RHET Perth & Kinross relies entirely on fundraising and donations to allow it to continue to provide free on farm and in class education to 3-18 year olds across Perth & Kinross.”
