2024 LUG show recap
2024 started with a bonus show as the weather delayed Brick O’ Deen 2023 kicked us off in Aberdeen in January. The show made £1050 to be split between local charities, Instant Neighbour and Aberdeen Cyrenians.
In February Thin Blue Bricks returned to Hamilton raising £2800 for COPS (Care of Police Survivors), a charity who support the families of police officers who have lost their lives whilst on duty.
In March the second Misty Isle Bricks was held in Skye with £6500 being raised for Cancer Research UK.
Brickmania was back in Peterhead in June with £3000 raised for Cancer Research Race for Life.
In September Brickin’ It was once again held in Barrhead with £1137.59 raised in aid of 1st Barrhead Scouts.
In October Brick O’ Deen returned to it’s traditional time with another £650 being raised for Instant Neighbour and Aberdeen Cyrenians.
Our final show of the year was Oban Winter Bricks in November which rounded off the year by raising £1722 which was split between the Scottish Charity Air Ambulance and Fairy Bricks.
The Committee would like to send their warmest thanks to show organisers Alison Clayton, Cennydd Smith, John Nicolson, Christine Aird, Vicki Harris and Fiona MacPhee for their great work in raising such amazing amounts for a host of worthwhile charities.
Including funds raised at the AGM and Christmas Member’s Day Tartan LUG events raised a total of £17419.59 for charity.
Huge thanks to all the LUG members who give up their free time so willingly to make our shows happen. Without you none of this would be possible.
Happy Hogmanay to you all!
