A LOCAL family battled through wind and rain to raise money for a charity close to their hearts as they took on the Great Scottish Run 10k.
On Saturday, October 2, took part in the Great Scottish Run 10k to raise money for the Beatson Cancer Charity and for The Ayrshire Hospice in memory of Ian Symington.
Ian passed away in July after bravely battling cancer (Osteosarcoma) for two years.
So far. they team have raised £1,921.5 but hope to reach their target of £2,000.
All money raised will be split equally between the two charities.
