Castle Douglas charity ball raises nearly £4,000 for JDRF

A charity ball in Castle Douglas helped raise thousands of pounds for youngsters with diabetes.

Soenaid Anderson organised the fundraiser at the Market Inn to support the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF).

Soenaid’s teenage daughter, Maisie, was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in 2015. Since then, Soenaid – who runs KBT Pharmacy – has raised tens of thousands of pounds for the charity and successfully campaigned to have blood glucose monitors made free to everyone with type one diabetes in Scotland.
