Grand National Charity Bet 2024
/Huge thanks to the Betting and Gaming Council for their generous £50 charity bet on the Grand National at the weekend.
Had luck been on our side, all winnings would have gone directly to my selected charity, Killie Foodbanks. Killie Foodbanks is an organisation made up of dedicated Killie fans who selflessly support our local foodbanks. As part of Fans Supporting Foodbanks Scotland, their motto of #HungerDoesntWearClubColours resonates deeply with the community.
Their tireless efforts deserve recognition and applause. Football fans often face unfair stereotypes, but the work of Killie Foodbanks and similar initiatives shines a light on the true spirit of camaraderie and compassion within our communities.
They personify what it means to care for others regardless of club allegiances. Despite the horses not delivering a win, I'm pleased to announce that the Betting and Gaming Council will still be donating £250 to Killie Foodbanks. This contribution will go a long way in supporting their vital work, ensuring that those in need receive the assistance they deserve.
