The cost-of-living crisis has been blamed for a major charity fundraising event being cancelled.
Poor ticket sales have prompted the Perthshire charity to cancel its All Golden Charity Ball, which had been due to take place at Crieff Hydro in less than three weeks.
The 50th anniversary ball was hoped to gather thousands of pounds for PKAVS - a Perth -based charity which supports unpaid carers, those recovering from mental ill health and elderly people.
